A half day course covering: Basic life support (regulated course) with Cert, risk assessing, rescuing yourself and others in and around the water and how to manage an emergency. This is a pressure free course - you are not forced to join in with any of the course and can just watch if you like. The rescues will be demonstrated and then you get chance to try them and put them into a practical first aid scenario. This course runs in line with my winter swimming safety course and upon completion of both courses you will be highly knowledgeable on how to stay safe around open water. Venue will be confirmed nearer the time but will be Windermere lake based. The times are 9am to 1pm ish so bring some food as I usually go over!

An evening swim session with safety cover. Ideal for anyone wanting a safe, supervised swimming session in a group which is calm, friendly and in small groups. SWIM CLUB THIS YEAR IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT. IT IS FOR FRONT CRAWL SWIMMERS OF ALL LEVELS WANTING TO IMPROVE FITNESS, ENDURANCE AND SKILL. The session will be set so it doesn't matter what speed you are. COACH: Julz

Suitable for those wanting a challenge but that can swim 1000m in open water. Front crawl and Breaststroke swimmers are welcome but if you are swimming breaststroke please email me first. Minimum numbers are required for this to happen. 2-way cross lake swim also available, please email. This is a very personal, bespoke event with a maximum of 8 people per crossing to allow us to cater for all abilities, speeds and anxieties.
