Chloe is a Channel Champion

Ivybridge Community College Year 7 student, Chloe Jones, has swum the equivalent of the English Channel, all to raise money for charity. 

Chloe swam the 22 miles (the shortest distance from England to France) over a period of 12 weeks, while swim training with Dartmoor Darts Aquatic at Mount Kelly, and weekend swims at the Ivybridge Leisure Centre.

So far she has successfully raised £262.00 for Aspire, a charity that helps change the lives of people paralysed by Spinal Cord Injury.  Chloe said “I love swimming, so this was an ideal opportunity to do something I love whilst helping others at the same time.”
