Charity Swim

Together with Graham Hiom and Tonya Schofield, formed The Cake Pigeons, a 3-person relay team from the United Kingdom that successfully crossed the English Channel on 27 June 2011 in 13 hours 7 minutes. They completed their crossing under cool, unsettled conditions while raising money for two charities together with the Outdoor Swimming Society. They raised £7,986 for the Teenage Cancer Trust, Addenbrooke's and £8,135 for NeST (rare kidney disorder called Nephrotic Syndrome). The team was nominated for the Charity Swim of the Swim for the H2Open Magazine Awards in 2012.

In 2013 whilst undertaking the English Channel solo crossing, Tunnicliffe raised over £12,000 for Cancer Research UK and Macmillan Cancer Care.
