THE world's biggest annual fundraising swim is back, and people in Worcestershire are being urged to dive in and join the nation in the fight against cancer.
Heading up this year's Swimathon event are interior designer Linda Barker and Olympic gold medalist swimmer Duncan Goodhew, which challenges people to complete 5K, 2.5K or 1.5K length swims individually or in teams to raise funds for Marie Curie Cancer Care.
Alysia Cameron-Price, community fundraiser for Worcestershire, said: "We’re looking for people who are up to the challenge to help make this year the best Swimathon ever."
People can take part at Worcester Swimming Pool, Malvern Splash, Wyre Forest Glades, and Stourport Sports Centre and the event is scheduled for April 17 to 19.

Entry for Swimathon is open until April 15.
