✨ MAY SWIMMER OF THE MONTH ✨

Congratulations to Elsie! 🥳

To say this swimmer works hard is an understatement!

We first met Elsie in February last year. She was so eager to learn, but so terrified of swimming. Trusting the water was a real battle — and one she fought with all her might.

Now, almost 18 months later, this little fish is not only going under the water, but swimming completely unaided over short distances in both the shallow end and the deep end!

In recent weeks, Elsie has been putting her fears aside and learning to jump into the pool… at the deep end, if you can believe it! She certainly couldn’t believe it the first time she managed it, but luckily Daddy has photographic evidence of what a little superstar she is!

Keep it up, Elsie. We’re all so very proud of you! 💦⭐

As the weather warms up, many of us are drawn to the lakes, rivers and coastline to enjoy the incredible benefits of open water swimming. 💙

Sadly, in just the last week, a number of people across the UK have lost their lives in water-related incidents, many of them young people. These tragic events are a reminder that open water should always be approached with respect and preparation.

Even on a warm day, the water can be cold enough to trigger cold water shock, causing an involuntary gasp response, rapid breathing and panic. Strong currents, sudden depth changes and hidden hazards can also catch swimmers by surprise.

That's why the RLSS UK 'Float to Live' advice is so important:

💦 Tilt your head back
💦 Relax and control your breathing
💦 Extend your arms and legs
💦 Float until the effects of cold water shock pass

If you'd like to enjoy the peace and serenity of open water swimming but aren't sure where to start, I can help. Building confidence, understanding risks and learning how to stay safe in open water could make all the difference.

Stay safe, respect the water, and enjoy every swim. 🌊

✨ APRIL SWIMMER OF THE MONTH ✨

Congratulations to Fleur! 🥳

This super swimmer has worked incredibly hard since moving into Stage 2! There was once a time when she didn’t want to put her face in the water or let Marion let go — but wow, those days are well and truly behind her!

In her latest lesson, Fleur even managed to go on her back for a few metres without reaching out for help, and while waiting for her turn, she was swimming on her tummy like a little fish 🐠

Well done, Fleur — it’s been so worth the wait to see your love of the water shine through 🩵

✨ FEEDBACK FRIDAY ✨

A slightly different kind of feedback this week — the kind that comes straight from a swimmer 😍

The lovely Faye presented me with this little notebook as a thank you for her swimming lessons after completing all 7 stages of our Learn to Swim programme.

What a journey it’s been! Starting back in Workington as a little girl who was terrified of anything to do with water — putting her face in, lifting her feet off the floor, floating on her back, swimming in the deep end — she has overcome it all.

She leaves me now as a confident little fish, with beautiful breaststroke and the stamina to swim over 300m without stopping 🐟

Thank you, Faye, for my notebook and chocolates — but most of all, thank you for being such an exceptional swimmer. I’m so proud of you! 💦
