She will still be involved in the sport and with swimming coaching & training plan support through the parent company. If you are interested in taking over the operations of Dover Channel Training, please get in touch with Emma to learn more about what is involved or to discuss options
“You’re standing on a beach near Dover, it’s pitch black, you look out into the distance and notice the moon sparkling off the water, the lights of passing boats in the distance. You raise your arm and hear the horn from the boat as you step purposefully into the water, excited to take the first stroke to finish the adventure of a lifetime”
