The Chestnut Appeal for Men’s Health swim season is well underway.
This year’s first swim took place last Sunday (27th July) at Burgh Island, with nearly 300 people hitting the water despite looming clouds. So far, our fantastic Burgh island fundraisers have raised over £10,000!
Next up is the St Michael’s Mount challenge, a unique opportunity to swim round the iconic Cornish island. The sold out swim takes place this coming Saturday (2nd August), with around 280 participants set to take part.
Although our swim events often sell out fast, there’s still a few tickets left to the Drake’s Island swim if you’d like to join us in the water this year.
As well as being a fantastic way to challenge yourself against a scenic South West backdrop, the money fundraised by each swimmer allows us to fight men’s cancer and support patients across the South West.
If you or someone you know is affected by prostate, testicular or penile cancer, our free patient and family support groups across Devon and Cornwall offer a space to connect with others who understand what you’re going through.
