JAZZ™ Apples are joining forces with us for this year’s Bournemouth Pier to Pier swim.
Hailed as one of Europe’s largest open water swimming events, this year’s swim takes place on Saturday 1st July with over 1,300 swimmers ready to take to the water.
JAZZ™ Apples are sponsoring the event which will see participants taking on the 1.4-mile challenge between Bournemouth and Boscombe Pier.
Roisin Greenup, our Senior Event Manager, said: “We are excited to be back in Bournemouth for the Pier to Pier swim. The event has become well established over the years but it’s thanks to our volunteers and sponsors, like JAZZ™ Apples, that it’s remained a success.
“It’s wonderful to have JAZZ™ Apples on board and we’re incredibly thankful for all their support. By sponsoring this year’s swim, JAZZ™ Apples are helping us make a difference to those with heart and circulatory diseases and enabling us to continue to make medical advancements in this area.
“We can’t wait to see all of our swimmers, and the Jazz team, at the finish line.”
Since it was first held in 1992, more than 33,000 people have taken part in the swim helping to raise more than £3.6m for research into heart and circulatory conditions.
Finish line celebrations
Our incredible volunteers will be encouraging swimmers around the course and the Jazz team will be on hand to help cheer swimmers over the finish line. They will also be handing out goody bags packed with delicious, tangy-sweet JAZZ™ Apples and a finisher’s t-shirt for participants in need of a refreshing lift.
Hannah McIlfatrick, Commercial Director at Worldwide Fruit Ltd, exclusive suppliers of JAZZ™ Apples, added: “We’re thrilled that JAZZ™ Apples are sponsoring the BHF on one of their brilliant events. We know just how important the Bournemouth Pier to Pier swim is in raising funds to help the millions of people living with heart or circulatory diseases in the UK and it’s wonderful to be involved. Good luck to all the swimmers!”
