A mother of two has revealed to underwater headphones and waterproof iPhone case users that she will take part in an open-water swim for charity this weekend.

Speaking to the Henley Standard, Hannah Young indicates that she will swim from one end of Coniston Water in the Lake District to the other on Sunday (July 18th) to raise money for the Sarah Matheson Trust for Multiple System Atrophy.

Overall, Mrs Young will swim for 5.5 miles, although she may be joined by her husband Paul, who in the past has participated in long-distance swimming events in support of the charity.

"I hope to complete it in around three hours, although it may take longer depending on how cold the lake is on the day," she states.

However, Mrs Young claims that although the temperature of the water is set to be around 14C, she will not wear a wetsuit and will only don her swimming costume, hat and goggles.

Earlier this month, the Darlington and Stockton Times revealed that Sheila Dick, Ann Hutchinson and Olwen Taylor, who are 71, 70 and 68 years of age respectively, swam a total of 1.5 miles at the Bedale Leisure Centre to raise money for charity.
