Hi Ginny,

Welcome! This is the mailing list of the Oxford "group" of the Outdoor Swimming Society. You can find out loads more info about the society in general on the website http://www.outdoorswimmingsociety.com but this mailing list is a good place to find out about swims. In general the way it works is that someone decides that they are going to go for a swim and then invite other likeminded people along. There is no organisation, as such.

As well as the general swims we are in the process of swimming the Thames from "source to salt". These swims are advertised on here and on Facebook. Search on FB for "outdoorswimming society" or "OSS Swim the Thames".

Hope to see you at a swim soon!

Please note that OSS Oxon exists to put swimmers in touch with other swimmers, not to organise swim events or in any way suggest that outdoor swimming is a safe activity or that you should go swimming. If you choose to swim you do so entirely at your own risk and on your own initiative, and any plans you make are your own responsibility.
