Catch up with the Bluetits, the swimmers who planned a 52-mile relay across the Celtic Sea in August 2025.
This story
Six women from the Bluetits Chill Swimmers, a cold-water swimming community that began in Pembrokeshire in 2014, planned a 52-mile relay from Ireland to Wales across the Celtic Sea. It was expected in early August 2025 and billed as the first all-female relay attempt on the route, with a television documentary following the team. Fiona and Elspeth, two of the six, are founding members of the Brecon Bluetits, who meet most Saturdays at Brecon Boathouse. The page was written before the swim, so it does not say how it went.
