Bumpy and Bumpy
A huge thank you to all our 2026 Burgh Island swimmers.
What a lovely warm sunny day, with an added sprinkle of easterly breeze to make things a little lively round the back of the Island.
Thanks to your incredible fundraising efforts we are now approaching £22,000, which is just brilliant. One more push and let everyone know you’ve completed the swim and encourage a few more donations if you can.
Your support helps men across the region facing prostate, testicular and penile cancers.
The Chestnut Appeal for Men’s Health would like to thank our event sponsors Marchand Petit, who have supported the swim for many years and once again provided the wonderful team; Tia, Alex, Helen and Ian on registration.
Thank you to Tia and Alex for the photos which you can access here

A big thank you to Vlad and the Burgh Island Hotel. Vlad took on the challenge again this year and did really well both in and out of the water and the Hotel kindly provided the post‑swim snacks.
And of course, thank you to Llyr and the ERA Water Safety team for keeping everyone safe throughout the event.

If you’d like to join one of our other swims this year, we still have places available on the Drakes Island Swim in September.
