In his message, the Prince of Wales said: “Congratulations to Swimathon UK on 40 years of bringing people together through swimming. It’s so inspiring to see hundreds of thousands of people taking part while raising millions for life-changing charities. W.”
Prince William praised Swimathon UK in a message on social media on Saturday | GETTYWilliam has been an ambassador for Swim England since 2017, and has always been a keen swimmer, captaining his water polo team at university.
The first nationwide Swimathon took place in 1988, and it was launched with Olympic gold medalist Duncan Goodhew.
