...to raise money for a charity. If anyone has any inspiration or ideas please could you tell me?

Sponsored swim maybe? How many lengths?

I am all out of energy and inspiration!
Thank you!

I was going to suggest a litter pick, or something else that has visible results and will benefit other people/the community.

Yes. People are much more likely to be up for sponsoring something like that.

A litter pick, councils will give you a litter picking tool.
He could be sponsored for each bag.

What is the charity the money is going to?
Something that's linked to it in some way.

I think it’s got to be a challenge if you want sponsorship so how many lengths really depends on his level of swimming - if he’s a club swimmer then what’s challenging to him will be a lot more than to someone who isn’t. he could do something like the equivalent distance to somewhere significant over a number of weeks or in a month?

I don't sponsor people wanting to do things and get funded through sponsorship.

Could he do odd jobs instead? Tidying gardens, taking Xmas Dec's out of lofts, washing cars, that sort of thing?

Do a walk

I always think that being sponsored to do something you want to do anyway is a bit of a cheat.

Something like a charity car wash is far more reasonable to ask for donations and he's actually putting in some work.

Abseiling. Assuming he doesn’t mind heights.
