British Gas Great North Swim

What's it all about?

The Great North Swim is a one mile open water challenge that takes place in the beautiful setting of Lake Windermere in the Lake District. This popular three day event (22, 23 and 24 June) brings lively crowds of spectators which creates an atmosphere like no other. Rainbow Trust is delighted to be part of this event again in 2012.

We ask that all participants pay a registration fee of £38 and aim to raise £150 in sponsorship.
