The Lions' Club in Frome hold an annual sponsored swim event, local charities and organisations enter teams and the money raised is divided between the Lions Club and the swimmers' nominated charity.

In March 2008 FTYB entered two teams, the 12 swimmers completed 87 laps of the pool and raised £326.16.
