The British Chamber of Commerce for Luxembourg (BCC) People and Leadership Group is organising an in-person event on the occasion of International Women's Day, on Tuesday 8 March 2022, at Ginkgo Centre: The City in Luxembourg-Limpertsberg, from 18:00.

This BCC People and Leadership Group event, the first of 2022, entitled “In at the Deep End – How one woman swam 60km!", will look at how Luxembourgish athlete Paule Kremer swam across the English Channel in 2017.

According to the organisers: "We all need to develop a mental strength for when we face challenges, planned or unplanned. If you were alone with your thoughts for hours at a time, how would you stay positive? Is there a way to get into a ‘flow’ state for all of us? What would keep you going to the end?"

Claudia Neumeister, BCC Council Member and Founder of Luxdates, will interview Paule Kremer to understand how someone "who wouldn't call herself a swimmer" prepared herself for a foutreen-hour swim across the English Channel. 

Paule Kremer is an English Teacher in Luxembourg by day and has competed in triathlon and duathlon events in the past years. She was 29 years old when she became the first Luxembourgish woman to swim the English Channel, in 2017.

The cost of attending this event is: free for Sustaining Members; €15 for Business & Individual Members; €30 for Non-Members.
