WHY not take part in this year's largest fund-raising sporting event, the BT Swimathon 97? You will be helping yourself to a fit body while helping many thousands of young people in the UK face homelessness, poverty, unemployment, discrimination, family breakdown and personal crisis.

It is the Prince's Trust's aim to help these young people to succeed. They provide training, education, financial assistance, personal development programmes, business start-up advice and support which would otherwise be beyond their reach.

The Trust will be benefiting from the 1997 BT Swimathon and your participation will really make a difference to the lives of these young people.

So if you want to get in trim and help hit our fundraising target of £1.5 million, why not sign up now and call our Lo-call number 0345 881199 to find out where you can take part.
