Dave Quartermain
As Founder & CEO Dave has a passion for open water swimming that has taken him to New York (to swim around Manhattan Island, first Brit winner), Africa (Robben Island), many of the UK's Lochs / Lakes as well as almost completing the English Channel (300m off, darn!). As one of the UK's top open water swimmers in the late '90's he set up Uswim to provide safely supervised swims to water-lovers and has since then welcomed over 150,000 people - and counting - into the great outdoors. Learning to swim in the canal outside his home in Marple seems a lifetime ago!
