The annual Frances Thornton Memorial Galway Bay Swim in aid of Cancer Care West which is now in its 16th year will be taking place virtually throughout the whole month of August this year.
The annual swim which would normally see 150 people crossing the bay in July has had to be reimagined again for 2021. Last years virtual swim was a huge success with people taking part from all over the world. Swims took place in rivers, lakes, pools and the sea.
So, this year in order to ensure that Cancer Care West raises the vital funds it needs in order to ensure its services are available to cancer patients and supports to their families, the charity is calling on you to swim 13km throughout the month of August.
You choose where you want to swim and how many metres each day. Everybody that raises over €100 receives a tech tshirt and a swim cap
Total raised : € 2,980
