AN ELDERLY swimmer has raised over £100 for cancer sufferers by completing a mile in just under an hour.
Keith Green, 77, swam 66 lengths of Warminster pool on Sunday in 55 minutes and 45 seconds.
Now £120 raised through sponsorship and donations has been handed over to the MacMillan Cancer Relief Fund.
He said: "It was the first two lengths that were the most difficult and with 64 left to go I really didn't think I was going to make it."
Bosses from holiday firm Butlins arranged the sponsored swimathon in aid of MacMillan Cancer Relief and hundreds of volunteers from across the country took part.
