Swimmers have taken part in a series of open water races at Alton Water near Ipswich for the Great East Swim. It's part of the national Great Swim event that takes place in five different locations across the country.

Last year the event had to be called off because of high winds, but the weather was far kinder this year. View Hannah Pettifer's report below.
