Speaking about their achievement Sofia-Nur, Millie & Hannah commented: “We've decided to put our swimming to good use once again for BBC Sport Relief 2016, to raise cash that will help to change lives, both here in the UK and abroad. This time, the three of us took part, and we really are grateful for everyone’s donations, as your generosity will help to make a world of difference to people living incredibly tough lives.  Lots of love Sofia-Nur, Millie & Hannah!”
