***CANCELLED***
SORRY BUT THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED DUE TO THE CORONAVIRUS OUTBREAK
A statement released said:
We’re sorry to confirm that the Pier to Pier Sunset Swim will not go ahead on Saturday 11 July 2020 and sadly, we are unable to reschedule to another date.
We’d like to automatically roll your registration onto the 2021 event and will email you as soon as we have the new date for your diary. Once the date is confirmed, your place will be guaranteed. If you have a JustGiving page set up already, we’ll also move this to become a 2021 page, so you’ll have lots more time to fundraise. If you’re happy with this – you don’t need to do anything. We’ll be in contact to confirm the date as soon as we possibly can.
We appreciate you may not feel able to commit to the 2021 event just yet and if that is the case, we’d really value your support by donating your 2020 registration fee and fundraising.
Should you wish, you’re entitled to a refund of your registration fee and fundraising. In order to claim this back, please email us. When we announce the 2021 date, this opportunity will still be available.

Join thousands of other supporters at the 30th anniversary of the BHF Bournemouth Pier to Pier Swim as you brave the English channel in this incredible 1.4 mile open water challenge.
Starting from Bournemouth Pier, put your front stroke to the test in this challenging sea swim along the coastline to Boscombe Pier.
Your entry fee covers the cost of organising the event, but it’s the money you raise that powers the life saving research, so we ask our heart swimmer to set themselves a target of at least £200.

Full water safety cover
Branded swim hat
Timing chip and wristband to wear during the swim
Luggage transport from start to finish location
A training guide from Outdoor Swimmer
