MARATHON SWIM GIVES CHARITIES A FUNDRAISING BOOST

Two charities have benefitted from a Blackburn man’s mammoth swim in Lake Windermere.
The Stroke Association and Blackburn Rovers Community Trust (BRCT) both received more than £3,000 after Oli McCann plunged into the waters of England’s biggest lake and swam 10km.
BRCT will use the money specifically to help Apple Trees in Blackburn, an organisation the Community Trust works with closely with, to deliver targeted multi-sports activities for children with disabilities.
The Stroke Association will use the money to further research and support those who have suffered a stroke.
