Congratulations to Rob Britton (pictured left), Helen Lewis (pictured centre) and Andrew Jamieson (pictured right) from the Department of Chemistry who completed the Great North Swim in Lake Windermere at the weekend.

Rob is taking part in all five of the British Gas Great Swim series to raise money for Oxfam. 

Each is a one mile open water swim in a lake, loch or dock. If you would like to sponsor Rob’s heroic effort, please follow the link to his just giving page (http://www.justgiving.com/robertbritton)
