toob employees braved the Solent on Saturday 21st September in a sponsored open water swim to raise money for Solent Mind and The Rose Road Association.
Taylor Ward and Lorenzo Chicca faced the 16.8 degree Solent to swim 1k in open water and completed the course in just under 20 minutes.
The swim, which is organised by The Rose Road Association, takes place as a part of the Southampton Boat Show. It raises money to support to young people with disabilities and their families.
toob's participants were also raising money for Solent Mind, the local branch of the national mental health charity, Mind.
Nick Parbutt, CEO, toob, said, “toob has supported Solent Mind over the last few years and it is great that Taylor and Lorenzo have added the Rose Road Association to the community organisations that we support.”
Ward added: ‘It’s amazing to be able to raise money for such fantastic local charities like Solent Mind and The Rose Road Association.’
