Harry Middleton of Fine & Country Hammersmith is no stranger to tough challenges. Harry tells “I didn’t start off as a serious swimmer. In fact, I got booted out of my first swim school for…. lets just say messing around. But when an Achilles injury ended my rugby career, I was pushed into swimming for rehab, and that’s where things took a turn.
I went from struggling to stay in a swim club to qualifying for counties, regionals, and eventually earning a national time and multiple national medals. Training in a high-performance centre with Olympic coaches taught me the value of hard work, resilience, and grit.
It’s also the reason I was able to swim the Channel, have I mentioned that before, that I swam the channel”.
Harry’s next challenge is to swim around Jersey on 19th September 2025 for Stroke Association after losing his gran last year.
