Becca's Channel relay swim

In June 2026 I'll be swimming a relay across the Channel with five other brilliant Bluetits Chill Swimmers. The Bluetits Chill Swimmers was founded in September 2014 by Sian Richardson to share her love of cold-water dipping. It became a social enterprise in 2020 and a CIC in 2025 to further support the ever-growing community. I started swimming with the Milton Keynes Bluetits in April 2023 and since then have swum year-round in all weathers and temperatures. A core Bluetits value is about challenging our limits together - I never would have set foot in cold water without the support of this incredible group and would never have dreamed of taking part in a relay Channel crossing. Each team member is fundraising to cover their own costs, with anything above this amount donated to the Bluetits to help them continue to grow this incredible community. Any donations, large or small, would be hugely appreciated.
