Due to a last-minute donation from the pupils at Melrose, the amount raised by the 2020 Skipton Swimarathon has topped £70,000.
A final donation from the pupils and staff at Melrose, following their swimming efforts in October, pushed it to that high.
Nick Guillemette, chairman of the Skipton Swimarathon committee, said: ‘The number of individuals and businesses getting involved has continued to rise year on year and I think the impact is clear to see given that we are now celebrating another record-breaking year.
