BREAKING NEWS: WORLD RECORD HOLDER – ROBBEN ISLAND SWIM: Being brave in the waves
World record holder, Howard Warrington, will be swimming his 160th Robben Island to Blouberg crossing on 30 September, to raise funds for Heartlands Baby Sanctuary, based in Somerset West. The sea temperature ranges from 10 to 14 degrees, and Howard only swims in a Speedo.
Lily the gorgeous dog, goes on all excursions and is the `shark spotter’.
The swimmers have all been challenged to raise R5 000 each – how can you help?
Please go to our donate page where you have the option to contribute via Payfast or through our ABSA or Nedbank accounts. https://www.heartlandsbaby.org/donate/ and put Robben Island in as a reference along with your email address please.
