In 2008 he did it again becoming only the 84th person in history to swim it twice. In the same year, he became the oldest known person to represent Great Britain at swimming when he competed in two FINA World Cup Open Water Grand Prix swims in Serbia and Mexico respectively. Then is 2010, he completed his third crossing of the English Channel as part of a six person relay team.

In 2008 he and his wife Beccy started Body and Mind Studio International Ltd, providing personalised Naturopathic Nutrition advice and coaching, as well as Motivational Speaking based on setting and achieving your goals - whatever they may be.

He is currently writing two books. The first is with Jim Rohn’s 18 year business partner, Kyle Wilson, called “Bringing Value, Solving Problems and Leaving a Legacy”. The second is called “Beyond The Black Line - The Journey to France” about Paul’s journey leading up to completing his first English Channel Swim on July 10, 2007.

Paul’s mission in life is to pass on his experience and knowledge to as many people as possible, across the world to enable them achieve their personal wellness and business/sporting goals.
