Having been an international swimmer for 20 years I am shocked at how often people tell me they can’t swim.

About 1 in 4 eleven year olds and 1 in 5 adults in Britain can’t, a frightening statistic when you think how many families go to beach resorts or to hotels with pools for their holidays.

At Karen Pickering SWIM we are trying to put that right by offering top quality, fun lessons all around the country.

We have experienced teachers ready to help children & adults of all ages and abilities, even those who have a fear of water, so that everyone can get the same enjoyment and health benefits I did from the sport.
