In the charity's own words
We provide swimming lessons to young people from 4+ to teach them this important life skill. Once proficient they can progress to join the competitive section of the swimming club and be involved in local, county, regional and national competitions. We also have a strong Masters group where age is no restriction. Wherever possible we endeavour to cater for swimmers with disabilities in all groups.
