Make Waves. Support Local. Dive In.

Saturday 28th March & Sunday 29th March 2026 
12:00pm – 4:00pm 
Llandudno Swimming Centre

The Mayor of Llandudno, Councillor Antony Bertola, is taking the plunge for a powerful cause — and YOU are invited to join him!

For two inspiring afternoons, a dedicated lane at Llandudno Swimming Centre will be open for the Mayor’s Charity Swim, and everyone is welcome to jump in, swim as many lengths as you like, and donate whatever you can afford. There’s no entry fee during the event — just bring your energy, enthusiasm, and community spirit!

Why We’re Swimming

Swimming is more than just a sport — it's a lifesaving skill, a source of confidence, and a pathway to opportunity. Please come along and support this fundraising event.
This year, we are proud to support:

Conwy MIND

A leading mental health charity ensuring that no one has to face mental health problems alone. Together, we recognise the powerful connection between physical activity and mental wellbeing, using swimming to build confidence, community, and resilience.

Citizens Advice

An independent charity providing free, confidential advice to those facing challenges with debt, housing, employment, benefits and more. Swimming represents resilience, determination, and progress — values that align perfectly with their mission to empower and support individuals in times of need.

Supported by Ffit Conwy

We are delighted that Conwy Ffit are supporting this event, making it possible for participants to swim and donate without paying to use the pool during the event hours. *Please note only those individuals registering to complete the charity swim will receive free access to the site and will be required to sign in.

How You Can Get Involved

  • Swim 2 lengths or 200 — every stroke counts 

  • Bring friends, family, colleagues 

  • Bring a donation for the collection bucket on the day 

  • Cheer from poolside 

  • Help spread the word

Every contribution — big or small — will help make a meaningful difference.

Let’s pack the pool, fill the lane, and show what Llandudno can achieve when we come together.
