Whether you’re an adult, a child, or simply young at heart – learning to swim isn’t just a life skill, it’s a rite of passage to a new lease on life. Learning to swim brings freedom, fun and endless opportunities to create lifelong memories in and around water. Places Leisure follow the Swim England Learn to Swim Framework to deliver swimming lessons that build water confidence from the first splash for a lifetime of water safety and enjoyment.
