Yesterday, Rebecca Hamilton completed her first swim marathon across the stunning Lake Geneva in just 4.5 hours, swimming from Switzerland to France!

All for a good cause too! Her impressive 13km swim was not just a personal achievement but also a significant effort to raise funds for Żibel's ghost net missions.

Żibel is in the high season of ghost net recovery, a critical period where countless marine lives are saved from the peril of entanglement. Ghost nets, which are lost or abandoned fishing nets, pose a severe threat to marine ecosystems.

Rebecca’s swim highlights the urgency and importance of removing these hazards from our waters. If you want to support this vital cause, visit this link here.

Together, we can make a difference!
