MIDMAR 8-Mile swimmers Ashleigh Clarke and Lance Fraser will host a CANSA Active Swimathon charity swim to raise funds for the organisation as part of the Midmar Mile.
The swimathon takes place at Northlands Primary School on November 4 from 8:30 to 16:00.

Fraser said that CANSA Active is their chosen beneficiary as the organisation does incredible work in promoting a healthy lifestyle and it does not receive any funding from Government.
“There are various other charities that other swimmers support. All of the money raised via 8-Mile initiatives goes to charity – 50% to a charity of your choice and 50% to a group of chosen 8-Mile charities,” he said.
CANSA Active has also designed costumes for the event which will be available soon on the website, www.cansa.org.za.
Companies can also sponsor a lane and obtain a Section 18A Certificate from CANSA. Food and beverages will be on sale on the day, and there will be raffles and spot prizes.
