Once again in support of the Thames Hospice swim challenge, members of our staff will be venturing into the lake for a swim to raise money for the hospice. As members of the safety team for the main event, we will be completing our swim on Monday 16th June 2025, to help fundraise for this local charity.
Each member of our team will be aiming to swim 2km. You may have spotted some of us out doing some training during the regular swim sessions.
We are hoping to raise money for this great cause to help the Hospice continue their amazing work.
We would be extremely grateful for any donations to sponsor the team with their swim challenge.

Do you remember our recent member of the month Sash, who has a love of stand up paddleboard surfing?
He has recently been showing off his skills, riding the waves on Tamarindo Beach in Costa Rica, and we think it looks epic!

LAST CHANCE TO BOOK!
Saturday 31st May 2025
Join Kate Hughes, mindfulness coach, to explore meditative practices and mindfulness in the surrounds of Bray Lake 🌳 You will be invited to step away from your usual hustle and bustle (and mobile phone!) to get curious about your moment in nature🦋
It’s widely understood and accepted that being outside in nature is good for us. But how often do we really pay attention to our surroundings? Are we ever really present, or do anxiety or racing thoughts distract us? 💭
During this session Kate will be sharing her top tips for how you can start using mindful techniques now to enhance your experience of the every day.
There will be an opportunity for Q&A at the end of the session and you’ll have full use of our cafe and facilities ☕️
No previous experience is required. The session will involve different practices and can be adapted to suit you. Booking is essential!
Book today via Kate’s website https://www.katehughesmeditation.co.uk/services/mindfulness-at-bray-lake , £25 per person.
