World swim against Malaria
Malaria, a disease that kills up to 3 million people a year, can be prevented with just a US$5 mosquito net.
To raise money for nets, the Against Malaria Foundation is aiming to get one million people worldwide to take part in World Swim Against Malaria.
Participants at the event can swim on, before or after 25 June and there is no set distance or sponsorship.
Speedo, a sponsor since the first event in 2005, has donated 35,000 items of swimwear this year. Details: www.worldswimagainstmalaria.com
