Claire Draper was preparing to swim The Wash to raise money for her best friends’ daughter Jossie who is fighting high-risk neuroblastoma. HUUB arranged for one of their lifelong friends and brand ambassadors Professor Greg Whyte to meet Claire in London for a swim, and also to advise on training and what to expect throughout the challenge.
Greg Whyte OBE, the physical activity expert, world-renowned sports scientist and former Olympian has helped raised over 37 million for Sport Relief and Comic Relief heading up gruelling challenges, a number involving open water swimming such as David Walliams swimming the channel and the whole length of the River Thames.
