Michael Helps

SWIMMER, ARTIST, PODCASTER

Michael (Mickey) Helps started playing waterpolo aged 11 with one of the UK’s most successful teams, going on to win national titles as a player & coach. He completed the first of his English channel swims in 2007 which then led to multiple channel, lakes, rivers & city swimming experiences around the world including Europe, Africa, Asia, Middle East & North America, attaining the open water triple crown. Mickey says he feels fortunate to have played waterpolo with, swum alongside & met some of the best & most inspirational people, from different aspects of the aquatic world, with amazing stories & passion for a certain swim.

Through his MYSWIM podcast & his love of art, Michael talks to aquatic adventurers about their individual “MYSWIM” stories & interprets these into bright, fun art to reflect the unique adventure.

He hopes you will be inspired to find your own individual MYSWIM.
