Swim for Bec

This 2024 swim season, 19 passionate swimmers will compete in 10 different ocean swim events, ranging in lengths from 800m to 5km across Sydney, the Central Coast, Canberra and Darwin, in honour of the vibrant, kind and strong Rebecca Pearsall.

Our inspirational and beloved daughter, sister, cousin, niece and friend passed away suddenly on 8 June 2023 at the age of 35. Rebecca never let anything hold her back or stand in her way of achieving her goals and she has left this legacy in all of us who's hearts have been held by hers. She has swum beside us all at many of these events before and will no doubt be alongside us saying "You got this!" as we all jump into the water this Summer.
