What a relief it was to be in the water this week, far too hot for comfort! Are you thinking of coming along next week? Hopefully by Tuesday it will be at least a little cooler!

You needn't be a para-athlete to join our non competitive swimming club, but all disabled adults are welcome to attend for 'swimbling' and water based PT at 19:45 on Tuesdays.
Carers are welcome in the water or out, we're a friendly bunch and you never know - you might just discover a talent you didn't know you had!! Taster sessions are free, but you'll need a pound coin for your locker!
Just meet us poolside, you'll see a flamingo bag, or ask for Kevin. :)
Brilliant start to the Sussex ASA Championships and Alfie has just dropped a new British Swimming and Swim England Para Record I. The 800 free!
Massive congratulations!
