Louise Gardo and Sian Kalynka of local legal firm francis george solicitor-advocate took part in the annual Victory Swim challenge at Cotswold Water Park. The event took place on Thursday 6 September and was sponsored by local Swindon firms, including redheadPR, Innovation IT Services and Visually Explained.

The £200 raised by the team went towards the Felix Fund who support bomb disposal experts working within the UK. Swimmers were challenged to swim 400m, 700m, 1500m or more in the lake.

Francis George, Senior Partner at francis george solicitor-advocate, said: "I am extremely proud of Louise and Sian for taking part and supporting such a fantastic cause, as well as for their own physical achievements. As a firm, we look forward to being involved in other activities such as this in the future."

It is imperative that initiatives such as this are supported by the local community in order to continue fundraising and to foster community spirit. The participants' achievements are multifaceted and serve far more importance than simply generating money for these worthwhile charities. This year, Louise and Sian represented francis george solicitor-advocate.

After flourishing in her maths and further maths A-Levels, Louise joined the team as an apprentice in the accounts department. She is currently studying for her AAT Level 2 exams and is a voluntary swim coach.

After graduating with honours in law from the University of Plymouth in 2006, Sian continued her studies to finish her Legal Practice Course in 2008. She joined Wiltshire Police as the Licensing Officer for Swindon in 2009 and worked within their team for almost 10 years before joining the practice earlier this year as a paralegal in the family department.
