Here are some of the events we participate in where we can to boost club funds. 

  • Swimathon – 9th March 2024. Every year we take part in Retford Rotary Club‘s Annual Swimathon,  All attending members will swim for around 15 minutes, and can be sponsored per length or a fixed amount. The money raised will be split between Retford Lifesavers and a Rotary-nominated charity. Parents are welcome to turn up and swim too – the more the merrier!

We also rely on the generosity of a number of donations and sponsors. If you’re interested in sponsoring Retford Lifesavers, please contact us and we will be very happy to talk things through!

Huge thanks to those who generously support our club with donations and their time.
