Four members of the Fife Wild Swimmers group started to become unwell after being exposed to the River Tay
Some open water swimmers who recently took to the Tay at Perth have reported that they were unwell after the dip. A group of 11 swimmers, most from the Fife Wild Swimmers group, swam from the Fair City to Newburgh on Sunday, July 9 - a distance of around 8.5 miles.
“The symptoms were extreme nausea, sickness and diarrhoea as well as fatigue. They were all better after two to three days.” “No one in the group is blaming this, as there had been heavy rain and potential run off from the fields. But for me it looks like a bit of coincidence that we have this, a few miles upstream, and four extremely experienced open water swimmers fall ill within that timescale.
He added: “Our Improving Urban Waters Routemap, which supports the national River Basin Management objectives , commits us to further investment of up to £500m – including the installation of 1000 new monitors at the highest priority sites by December 2024 to provide improved information on overflows and the way they work, when required, to drain large volumes of rainwater safely away from communities.
