His Excellency officially started the Lions Club of Jersey Swimarathon annual five day charity swimming event on Wednesday 19 March. The Government House “Team Kingfishers” swam on the Thursday alongside the Bailiff’s Chambers Team.
The theme for the year is ‘Supporting Islanders Affected by Cancer’. Every penny the swimmers raise goes to help local charities since Ravenscroft, our generous sponsors, fund all the event’s administrative costs. The charities chosen this year are ABC Breast Cancer Support Jersey, CLIC Sargent Jersey, Friends of Jersey Oncology, Jersey Brain Tumour Charity, Jersey Cancer Relief, Macmillan Cancer Support and Jersey Hospice.
