Two Ninewells Hospital employees have taken part in a relay swim across the English Channel to raise thousands for research into diabetes.
Martin Waddington (49) and Graham Matthew (48) braved the choppy waters for a cause that is very close to both of their hearts.
Martin, who works at Tayside Pharmaceuticals, said: ''We both know people affected by diabetes. There's also a big diabetes department within Ninewells. Most people probably know someone with diabetes ? colleagues or friends.''
Martin's niece has the condition and Graham (48) went through a kidney transplant operation himself.
