Bethan Thomas, Community Development Manager is taking on a mammoth challenge to swim 22 miles in one hit, on Friday 28th February she will enter Rhydycar Swimming Pool and take on 1408 lengths, swimming the equivalent distance of the English Channel.

Most people take on a challenge spread over a month, however, Bethan has opted to take on the monumental challenge in just 24hrs. This attempt is not in vail, it’s all in aid of a local project named Fit & Fed Merthyr Tydfil.

This project supports a range of children and young people across the borough of Merthyr Tydfil during the school holidays by providing them with a safe space where they get FREE access to healthy nutritious meals, sport and physical activities and a wide range of other enriching activities. Every £6.27 donated will fund one place for a full year.
