Summer holiday learn to swim and fun sessions

Perfect for kids to stay active and improve their swimming, over the summer we are running swimming crash courses and fun sessions at a number of our Leisure and Wellbeing Hubs.

They are the perfect way for children to enjoy their time off and release their energy and ideal for introducing non-swimmers to the water or helping swimmers improve specific strokes, just like our weekly lessons.
