I’ve just touched Dover harbour wall. That’s the end. 530kms in 49 days. I’ve done my bit, now it’s time for Government to do theirs. #TheLongSwim

On the final approach to Dover!

Second team now all completed with a gutsy swim from Freya Tyler at the end. Well done to Millie, Georgia, Josh, Emma and Darcie as well. Fantastic to have both teams completed!! @JLDSC @Channel103 @bbcsomerset
