Over 230 people take part in annual Thomas Smith Christmas Charity Swim

233 people braved the cold sea and took part in the 20th edition of the Thomas Smith Christmas Charity Swim on Sunday morning.

The youngest swimmer was just two years old, and the oldest 82.

After the company topped up the donations with a generous contribution, the total collected is of €10,000. The funds go towards the Malta Community Chest Fund Foundation.

The event was held at the pier below Independence Garden in Sliema. President Marie-Louise Coleiro Preca attended the event and handed out medals to the participants.

Over €110,00 in donations have been raised over the 20 years in which the event has been held.
