As you, swim addicts, all know, for the last 13 years Neda el Món has given 100% of the Neda el Món Illes Medes by ZOGGS benefits to the television and radio programme of the TV3 and Catalunya Radio Marathon. The 31st edition of the TV3 Marathon will be held on December 18th 2022 and will be dedicated to cardiovascular diseases. In developed countries, cardiovascular diseases are the main death cause, and they are cause of death of 32% of the total world population. Diseases which involve heart and blood vessels are chronic. This means that the patients’ quality of life is directly affected, and the disease generates dependency, often  complications, and a huge amount of healthcare and socioeconomic costs. Altogether it has become a public health concern.

Since 1992, when the first edition of the solidarity program took place, TV3 and Catalunya Radio have collected nearly 225 million Euros. Since 2009, Neda el Món and its swim addicts provided 23.415 Euros. Solidarity mustn’t stop! In May, let’s enjoy and swim for the TV3 Marathon; let’s swim for the cardiovascular diseases!
