On completing the swim, Mark said: “Conditions began well but deteriorated badly. Dorset duo are tired and happy.”

Look out for a fuller report in the coming days with some lovely photos of their landing on the beach in France.

The Club still has a 5-person team – “Shore-to-Shore” – due to swim in the next week or so. We wish them every success.
