How to raise Sponsorship

The Sponsorship Form is easy to complete which will help when asking friends, family and work colleagues to sponsor you and pay their money.

For local businesses and organisations who enter teams, we have developed a Super Supporter Awards Scheme in recognition of the hard efforts spent raising funds to support the Swimarathon. Please visit: https://www.swimarathon.org/super-supporter for more details.

Important: You must bring the fully completed sponsorship form with you at check-in before your team's swim, and you need to hand over the money/cheques (made payable to 'Swimarathon') at that time. You can also pay by debit or credit card at the time using our Sum-Up machines, or via this web-site at any time by using the 'Donate Now' button on the Home Page that links with Swimarathons account on Giving.gg. Please reference your Team name if possible. We appreciate that asking for money upfront from your sponsors isn't easy, but they have sponsored you in the knowledge that your team will do well, and it helps our volunteers to sort the donations when you arrive for your swim.

Please note that with a team of at least 8 swimmers per lane that we are trying to raise as much money as possible, which we would hope will not be less than £200-£300 per lane per hour. We would hope that corporates teams could target at least £1,000 for their team(s).

Thank you.
