Sports personality and TV presenter Gabby Logan has launched Swimathon 2006 in aid
of NCH, the children’s charity. Gabby was joined by Swimathon President Duncan Goodhew
at the pool at the Jumeirah Carlton Tower to mark the event’s 20th anniversary. 

Eighty per cent of all money raised by Swimathon 2006 will go directly to NCH, the
children’s charity. Swims are being held from 23-26 March 2006 across the UK.
