Time: July 8, 2011 to July 9, 2011
Location: Hampstead Heath Lido
Event Type: charity, swim
Organized By: Denise Davy
Latest Activity: Jun 8, 2011
The 2011 City Dip is fast approaching, this is a great opportunity to raise funds for charity.
In the past, the City of London organised a charity swim at the Golden Lane Leisure Centre in aid of the Lord Mayors Appeal. This event is held to raise the much-needed funds for the Lord Mayor’s chosen appeals; Coram children’s charity, and RedR which is a disaster relief charity. More information on both these charities can be found at thelordmayorsappeal.org.uk/dip
As Golden Lane Leisure Centre is closed due to refurbishment until 2012, City Dip is going al fresco this year with an exciting new venue:
Hampstead Heath Lido
Gordon House Road, Parliament Hill Fields
Hampstead Heath, London, NW5 1LP
On
8th and 9th July 2011
The Lord Mayor, Alderman Michael Bear, will be there to close City Dip 2011 on Saturday 9th July at Hampstead Heath Lido.
Team information
Adult teams may have a maximum of 6 people and swim up to 4,000 metres (142 lengths of Hampstead Heath Lido). Individuals and junior teams of up to 10 children and young people may swim up to 2,500 metres (90 lengths of Hampstead Heath Lido).
Top Fundraiser Prize
This year we have a brilliant top prize, if you get your sponsorship in by Friday 22nd July 2011 you’ll be in with a chance of winning a European boating holiday for four, kindly donated by Locaboat worth £2,000.
