A brave team of swimmers will be taking to the seas between the UK and France in the Channel Relay Swim as part of The Big Splash for Temple Street.

Kevin Prendergast , Jimmy Seery, Jeff Hopkins, Paul Byrne, Frank Cope, Eamonn Cope, Matthew Cope and Mick Kenny are taking on this amazing challenge from 6th - 15th August to raise vital funds for our hospital.

All funds raised will go towards St Michael's C Renal Unit at Temple Street Children's University Hospital to purchase vital life-saving equipment to assist children suffering from renal conditions, renal failure and patients awaiting renal transplants.
