We are Michael, Kerry, Jen, Tony, Chris and Tom. In the first week in September we're going to be swimming the channel. That's the English Channel. The 22 mile-wide, very cold sea between England and France and the busiest shipping lane in the world. Don't worry though, cos it's going to be fine. Really it is...

New Video!
Here's the video of our first trip to Dover, edited by Michael.
It doesn't have any footage of us swimming, because there was no one on the shore for us that time. But there's plenty of footage of us shivering!
We'll be swimming in relay for an hour each until we reach France. We'll leave Dover at some point in the week starting the 6th September (depending on weather and tides). Approximately 12 to 18 hours later we hope to have crossed the 22 miles between England and France.
None of us are serious swimmers, though some of us swam for clubs when we were younger. We are two auditors, one management consultant, two policy advisors and one IT consultant.
We're doing this for the hell of it and to raise money for several very good causes.
