Channel your inner adventurer! Experience swimming in tidal waters and get a deeper understanding of the Ocean Seven challenge, before watching Stefan Stuckert's documentary 'Against the Tides'.

Against the Tides is a feature documentary by the BAFTA-nominated and award-winning filmmaker Stefan Stuckert, following marathon swimmer, Beth French, as she sets out to conquer Oceans Seven, a challenge consisting of the seven most dangerous sea-channels in the world. For extreme swimmers, it’s the ultimate test; the equivalent to the seven peaks in mountaineering. Only a handful of people have ever completed it, but Beth aims to become the first person ever to swim all seven in one year.

For this unique event, you will not only get to see Against the Tides at a specially chosen venue, plus a Q&A with Beth French and the key filmmaking team, but also have a dip in the Thames with Beth herself. Oh, and a one year membership to Nowca, the largest community of open water swimmers and venues in the UK!
