Join the Big Swim 100 at Hilsea Lido and raise money for The Parenting Network
Swim 100 lengths. Feed families for a year.


The Parenting Network is inviting local businesses, organisations, community groups, families and friends to take part in The Big Swim 100 — a sponsored team swim challenge at Hilsea Lido.
Teams will work together to complete 100 lengths of Hilsea Lido’s 67-metre pool, raising vital funds to help The Parenting Network provide healthy meals for families across our sessions.


Last year alone, we fed 5,500 children, and demand is now higher than ever.
We are aiming to raise £10,000 through The Big Swim 100.
Whether you are a team of two, ten, twenty or more, everyone can take part. You choose your team name, set up your fundraising page, gather your supporters and take on the challenge together.
