Fun Swim Sessions at Brighouse Pool for Disabled Children
Does your child or young person like to play in the water? Sports Services are delivering ‘fun swim’ sessions for disabled children and young people aged 5 to 18 years. Sessions will help to promote positive experiences for children, gaining confidence in the water, developing friendships and encouraging social activities.
Water confidence can be gained by enjoying various activities i.e., playing with balls, floats, sinkers. All aids will be provided
(to include woggles, swimfins and arm discs).
The ‘free’ Fun swim sessions will take place on the following dates at Brighouse Pool, Woodvale Road (HD6 4AX)
