One of our new members, Angie, is supporting a swim between 2 continents which hopes to break the world record as the longest ocean swim:
I will be supporting Neil Agius a 34 year old swimmer from Malta. He co-funded an NGO to raise awareness on a number of issues including plastic in our oceans. Below please find a link to the website:

He was my training partner and we both represented Malta at the Athens Olympics in 2004. He is currently attempting to smash the World Record to swim the longest open water swim ever attempted:
He’ll be crossing two continents, from Africa to Europe. His message is that we all share oceans and litter discarded in Europe will end up in Africa and vice versa, so all have to take responsibility for our oceans.
I will be volunteering as a medic for the swim and I will also be an observer for Marathon Swimming Federation (MSF) a platform that ratifies independent open-water marathon swims.
Some interesting facts:
Challenges include:
Specific medical risks:
We hope to be able to follow his swim directly on the website, and will share the link when available.
Good luck to Neil, Angie and the rest of the Wave of Change record attempt team! 🏊 🚤 👏
