Whisper's Magical Children's Hospital and Maternity

Hello! Whisper is a very high impact charity that funds Whisper's Magical Children's Hospital and Maternity in Jinja, Uganda.

 

Swim Serpentine 2023

Swim Serpentine 2023 from Serpentine Bridge

As well as collecting their medals, our swimmers raised almost £7000 for Whisper between them! Thank you to our swimmers! The weather was great, the water a warm 21° and the Canada geese chatted as the swimmers swam by. Swim Serpentine is a far smaller, more personal event than the London Marathon. Recommended.
