"The Aztec 2024 Swimarathon Team wanted to send a huge thank you to our colleagues, friends and family for their generous sponsorship and to the Aztec matching scheme for contributing 25% of the total funds raised by us. With your help, we raised over £1,000 for the GSPCA which earned us a bronze sponsor award in recognition of the efforts to achieve this level of sponsorship.

"The event was super fun, with music playing and the energy in the pool was fantastic. (We booked a spare lane for some of our children for childcare purposes!) Thanks again for being a part of this, your generosity has made a real difference, and it means such a lot."

The above message from Renee, Lucy, Autumn, Kristina, Laura and Claire was shared by swimarathon beneficiary the GSPCA which said it is hugely grateful to AZTEC Guernsey and all that took part, organised and supported this years event.

Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said: “This years Skipton Swimarathon which was in aid of the GSPCA Wildlife Hospital as well as the organisors Round Table and The Lions Club was an incredible week of fun and fund raising.

“A huge thanks to all involved, took part and sponsored.

“It was wonderful to hear the great fun that AZTEC Guernsey had and so grateful to them for getting involved and we will update with some further stories from this amazing event.

“Myself and the GSPCA team also got involved and swam on the Friday and you can still sponsor us please go to https://giving.gg/donate/event/9674/GSPCA-Swimarathon-Team .

“From the Skipton Swimarathon to others, there are many ways to support our work with lots of ideas on our website www.gspca.org.gg or set up your own sponsored challenge by going to www.giving.gg or https://www.justgiving.com/gspca .

“Our next BIG events are the Dolphin Discover Trail 2025 and our BIG BUILD and we really need support for these exciting upcoming projects.

“You can sponsor a dolphin in aid of GSPCA and Autism Guernsey like with the previous Puffin Parade last year and there only a few left.
