There’s more to a swimming pool than meets the eye.
It’s where you make and meet friends or enjoy the solitude of lane swimming.
It’s where you get fit, keep fit and work on your wellbeing.
It’s where you learn vital life-saving skills.
It’s where you manage a long-term health condition.
It’s where you can make a career.
A swimming pool is what YOU make it, regardless of age, ability, fitness or health condition.
Cat, our Aquatics Lead, sees a rewarding career, supporting people with their health and wellbeing.
Here’s her letter to swimming…
“Thank you for giving me a career which has brought me into a special and supportive community. A career where I have made friends for life, which is rewarding, allows me to support people with their health and wellbeing and which leaves me feeling valued and with a strong sense of purpose.
“My dream as a sporty child was to work in a sport and fitness environment but I never imagined it taking me down the path it has but I feel very lucky to have found a career which keeps me motivated and inspired.
“Thank you swimming for providing me with a life skill which not only keeps me fit and active but could one day save my life. Thank you for enabling me to enjoy the joys of water around the world, feeling confident enough to swim in the sea and lakes, when on holiday with friends and family. I am happiest when near water, the sound of the waves never failing to relax me.
“Thank you, swimming, I will always be your cheerleader!”
