Official Charity Partner: Level Water

This year, our official charity partner is Level Water who aims to kickstart a love of swimming in children with disabilities. Fundraising for Level Water will help provide 1-to-1 swimming lessons for children with disabilities across the UK – giving every child the chance to learn, thrive, and enjoy the water.

Level Water is passionate about the power of swimming to change lives for children with disabilities. In the UK, access to swimming is not equal and too many children miss out on the physical, social and emotional benefits it brings. Level Water gives children with disabilities across the UK the opportunity to learn to swim, using the water as a powerful vehicle for confidence, independence and positive change. Because Level Water believes it shouldn’t matter who you are – everyone deserves the chance to dive in and swim.
