Following the success of the last 7 years, the '30 Bays in 30 Days' swimming challenge which raises funds for both Jersey Hospice Care and The National Trust for Jersey will be launched again for July 2022. We encourage all those registered to start the challenge on 1st July and swim a minimum of 30 strokes, 30 times in bays local to them. Participants can pick their favourite bays or if they want an extra challenge, can attempt to swim in all 30 during the month of July.
Participants may carry on swimming in August to complete as many swims or bays as they have challenged themselves to complete!

About Sheila Brown
Known to most as Sheils, Sheila B, or Sheila Bee. This is the 4th year of doing the challenge.
I absolutely love going in the ocean and since being in 30Bays it has given me new life to go in an swim. I just love it anytime of the year although I am not a strong swimmer. It is just so invigorating and gives a great feeling of well being.
we are so lucky to have such beautiful bays and scenery to be able to swim and live.
Please help me in my sponsorship I greatly appreciate monies donated whether it be small . I have been lucky to have many friends who have helped me achieve my goal. I thank them all.
If you would like me to swim for someone special I will dedicate the swim to them that day. So please let me know.
It really is a great challenge and raises money for Jersey Hospice and National Trust For Jersey.
A big thank you to all who donate and partake
Fundraising Information
This fundraising page benefits the following good cause:
National Trust for Jersey & Jersey Hospice Care
National Trust for Jersey
The National Trust for Jersey is an independent charitable organisation, which permanently protects and cares for over 1,754 vergées of land, 19,000 metres of footpath and 30 historic buildings for the benefit of the Island. Established in 1936, the Trust is totally self-funding; it currently costs £3,790 per day to run the organisation.
The Trust's main objective is to permanently preserve and safeguard places of historic interest and natural beauty for the benefit of the Island. This is mainly achieved through the acquisition of properties and land either though donations, bequests or purchases.
We would like to encourage every Islander that loves and cares for our beautiful Island to become a member of the Trust.
Jersey Hospice Care
Jersey Hospice Care is the island’s Hospice, offering specialist palliative care, free of charge, to all islanders with life-limiting illnesses, irrespective of cause or diagnosis.
Many people think that hospices are places of sadness focused on death and dying. In fact our focus is on living and living well right up to the end, making memories and spending time with your family.
Our care is about so much more than the specialist palliative treatment of a person’s physical symptoms. It’s a total philosophy of care, offering spiritual and emotional support that extends to family members and carers. For each person we are privileged to care for, we only get one chance at the end of life to get it right and that’s why we strive every day to go that extra mile for our patients and their families, to make extraordinary care our ‘ordinary’. Helping each person we care for, to get the best out of every day and to make each day count.
We couldn’t do this without the generosity of our local community and the support of our amazing volunteers.
In 2019 we launched our out-reach service for babies, children and young people with a life-limited condition. This included our Tots & Toys group for babies and children up to five years old. This service is in addition to our Emotional Support service for children and young people and their families, which we started in 2017.
