Can you believe the children are already into their second school term of this year! With the weather hopefully starting to improve and more school and family holidays approaching, why not give your child the skill of a lifetime? 🏊💦

Our Better Swim School Lessons are more than just learning to swim. With aquatic skills, water safety and rescue skills included in our programme, we are setting them up to be safe in and around water and teaching them how to recognise and respond to any trouble they may come across in open water as well as how to have fun safely!

What's better? Your child will receive a Better swimming hat relevant to their ability and digital certificates for free and they can also swim for free at their home centre in any family swim sessions so they can practice their skills outside of lessons!

For more information or to book visit 👉 https://brnw.ch/21wQXKW or use the Lessons and Courses tile on the Better UK app!

25/02/2025

Alongside our new Swim School setup, we also received a new platform that will be used during Green Sessions. This platform will provide swimmers with a designated space to take a break and recover in the middle of the pool, enhancing comfort and safety during their sessions.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Swimmer of the month ⭐️⭐️⭐️

A big shoutout to Elodie, who is our swimmer of the month for January 🏊‍♂️

Her swimming teacher Bev and the rest of the team at Helston are so proud of how Elodie’s confidence has grown so much over the last few weeks. She has now started to fully submerge in the water and also starting to swim a little with her face in the water, blowing bubbles.

Awesome swimming Elodie. 🤩

Keep it up. 👏

"My name is Samantha Day, and I am proud to be supported by the GLL Sports Foundation. This is my journey.

For years, I was terrified of the sea and everything it contained, but I knew I had to change when I saw my children beginning to mirror my fear, hesitant to enjoy the stunning waters of Cornwall. I recognised that I couldn't let them inherit my anxieties, so I decided to confront my fears directly by participating in a relay swim across the English Channel. 🇬🇧

Throughout my training and during the Channel crossing, I discovered something unexpected: I didn’t struggle with the cold as much as others did. Intrigued by this realisation, I began to push my limits, challenging myself in progressively colder waters. A friend then introduced me to ice swimming, and I instantly knew it was an experience I had to pursue. This decision transformed my life. 🥶🌊

I entered the world of swimming just 16 months ago at the club level and took up ice swimming a year later. 🗓️ My first ice swimming competition was the GB Championships in Cheltenham in January 2024, where I raced to become the GB Champion in the 50m backstroke.

I'm especially grateful to GLL for their support in my training without it, I wouldn't have been physically or mentally prepared for such a challenge, let alone bringing home medals. I truly appreciate it!" 🏅
