Trustee to swim Great North Swim to raise funds for local charity

Jonathan Erskine, LifeCare Trustee, is taking part in the Great North Swim to raise vital funds for LifeCare.

Jonathan’s dad has used LifeCare’s services for many years, which inspired him to get involved.  

Jonathan said “I will be taking part in the 2 mile swim on Lake Windermere, and I hope that every stroke will contribute to making a difference in the lives of older people in Edinburgh.”

The Arla Great North Swim is a weekend-long celebration of open-water swimming taking place over 7-9thJune.  Participants choose from six different open water distances, to suit all ages, abilities and level of experience. Distances range from 250m to a 10k.

Jonathan has opted for the 2 mile distance which is the equivalent of 125 lengths of a 25m pool.
