Baby loops the hoop in big swim for charity

Aug 10 2006

Liverpool Echo

 

WATER-LOVING babies raised thousands of pounds for charity by swimming without their water wings.

The tiny tots cannot walk or talk, but helped to raise £11,500 for baby charity Tommy's in their annual Splashathon.

The babies were put through their paces, swimming through hoops and turning around under water as part of the fundraiser.

Jayke Holt, from Mossley Hill, watched son Jacob do an underwater hoop swim.

He said: "The whole event was really good fun, especially as Jacob has been swimming since he was just two weeks old and now, at seven months, absolutely loves anything to do with the water."
