We’ve been making a splash at Brockwell Lido since 2008, promoting community engagement and participation in swimming by teaching and coaching swimmers of all ages and abilities. Our commitment is driven by a passion for swimming and the health and well-being of our diverse local community.

Here’s a snapshot of our journey

Programmes and Initiatives:

• Delivering high quality inclusive 1-2-1 swim lessons and group fitness and technique sessions since 2008 to swimmers of all abilities and ages from 8 to 80.
• Building a hugely popular ‘Swim Club’ community, 75% of whom are women over 35, a previously underrepresented group in sport and fitness.
• Devising and delivering a subsidised educational Art and Swim programme for local schools for over a decade, impacting up to 600 children annually. Nurturing creative skills and teaching basic swim techniques and water safety – resuming in 2024
• Teaching over 150 local swimmers the essential life skill of swimming, every Summer.
