🏊‍♀️💙 Thank You for Supporting Drowning Prevention Week! 💙🏊‍♂️
A huge thank you to all of our swim school students and swimming instructors for taking part in Drowning Prevention Week.
Throughout the week, our instructors have been focusing on essential water safety skills and helping our swimmers learn how to stay safe in and around the water. We are incredibly proud of everyone's enthusiasm and participation.
As a special recognition of their efforts, every swimmer received a Well Done Certificate for taking part and supporting this important initiative. 🌊👏
Thank you to our amazing instructors for delivering these valuable lessons and to all of our swimmers for their fantastic engagement throughout the week.

Our swimming instructors will be focussing on Water safety this week during lessons.

If you get into trouble in the water, remember:

Float to Live. 💙

If you fall in or become tired, stay calm, float on your back, and call for help. If someone else is in trouble, throw them something that floats.

How to float:
• Tilt your head back to keep your airway clear
• Keep your ears submerged in the water
• Relax and focus on your breathing
• Spread your arms and legs to stay balanced
• Gently move your hands and feet if needed

Learn more about floating in our Water Safety Code: www.rlss.org.uk/water-safety-code

RNLI has great Float to Live advice on their pages.

Congratulations, Neil, thoroughly deserved 👏
Neil is not only a fantastic coach but also one of our dedicated swim teachers. We’re incredibly lucky to have him teach our Group Stage sessions and delivering 1-to-1 lessons, where his knowledge, enthusiasm, and support help swimmers of all ages and abilities achieve their goals.
A well-earned recognition for someone who gives so much to our swimmers every day. Well done, Neil 🏊‍♂️⭐

🌟 Volunteers' Week 2026 🌟

We're grateful for all the incredible people who give their time, energy and enthusiasm to support our community swimming pool. 💙

From helping at fundraising events to selling raffle tickets and spreading the word about our pool, our volunteers make a huge difference. Every pound raised helps us keep our pool open, accessible and affordable for everyone in our community.

It would be fantastic to have a few more volunteers on the team. Whether you can help occasionally or become part of our regular Fundraising Team, we'd love to hear from you. Please leave your contact details at Reception and a member of the Fundraising Team will be in touch.

Together, we can help ensure our community pool continues to thrive for generations to come. 💙🏊‍♀️🏊‍♂️
