Our thoughts are with everyone affected by the devastating tragedy at Shoreham-by-Sea yesterday, and every other tragic drowning we have seen this summer.

Today is another heartbreaking reminder of the importance of making simple, lifesaving water safety messages accessible to everyone in our communities.

With reports that the family were Palestinian refugees, it has particularly resonated with us following the recent addition of Arabic to our translated Water Safety Code and Float to Live resources (thanks to Lucy Cawley and Tarek Hassan).

We cannot know the circumstances that led to yesterday’s tragedy, and would never suggest that any single resource could have changed what happened. But it reinforces why we believe that, wherever possible, language should not be a barrier to accessing simple water safety advice.

Please help us share these lifesaving messages as widely as possible. If you have links with communities where English may not be the first language, download and share our free translated Water Safety Code and Float to Live resources – and help us get this important advice to the people who may benefit from it.

https://www.sta.co.uk/the-water-safety-code-stay-safe-in-and-around-water/

The PM said today to the BBC in response to the tragedies that “there is more that can be done” and we will play our part with the Swimming Alliance and the National Water Safety Forum to help ensure this is achieved.

Huge respect to RNLI and all the emergency services 💙

💦 NEW FOR NOVEMBER 💦

We’re excited to be introducing even more swimming lesson options when our brand-new, purpose-built teaching pool opens this November.

⭐ After School
Standard 1:1 Swimming Lessons – Dedicated Teacher, Shared Pool Setting

A personalised 30-minute lesson with your swimmer’s own dedicated teacher, focused entirely on their individual needs and goals.

Another lesson may be taking place elsewhere in the pool, allowing us to keep the cost of 1:1 swimming lessons lower, while your swimmer still receives individual teaching and attention throughout.

Perfect for:
💦 Nervous beginners
💦 Building water confidence
💦 Swimmers needing a little extra support
💦 Stroke improvement & technique
💦 Beginners through to advanced swimmers

✨ Try your first lesson before committing to the full term

You can choose to pay for your first lesson only. Your space for the remainder of the term will be reserved for you, giving you the option to continue and book the rest of the term after your first session.

🏊‍♀️ NEW SATURDAY MORNING LESSONS

We’re also opening Saturday morning swimming lessons from November, with small-group classes available from beginner through to advanced level.

✨ Warm, purpose-built teaching pool
✨ Small, supportive classes
✨ Experienced teachers
✨ Confidence-focused, individual progression

November bookings are now open. Spaces are limited, so book ahead to secure your preferred lesson time. 💙💦
