Open Water Swimming
Whitchurch
These free to access sessions at Alderford Lake provide an opportunity to embrace the great outdoors while wild swimming with a supportive group of people.
The sessions support cardiovascular fitness, recovery, and mental health while also encouraging fun and relatable conversations with others living with and beyond a cancer diagnosis.
Whether you decide to take a dip or prefer to stay dry, you’re welcome to join the group afterwards for coffee and cake at the nearby café.
There are two groups you can join. Saturday sessions are for those with any type of cancer diagnosis, while Sunday sessions are reserved for those with a breast cancer diagnosis.
