WELCOMBE youngsters Jacob and Brinsley Morrison, together with mum Emma and dad Jim, swam a joint total of 5km on Sunday, April 10 at the Torridge Pool, as part of a charity swim in aid of Marie Curie Cancer Care and the 'Swimathon' Foundation.

Eight-year-old Jacob, whose idea it was to take part in the event, swam a total of 70 lengths, whilst seven-year-old Brinsley swam 50, beating their parents who only swam 40 lengths each!
