About Us
A family orientated community
swimming club since 1911
As a community swimming club, we rely on voluntary participation and strive to create an inclusive and family-friendly environment. Our operations are regulated by Swim England's 'Stronger Affiliation', and we actively participate in the local town galas for competitive swimming.
We currently have over 100 members, ranging in age from 5 to over 60 years, who swim twice a week at Hyndburn Leisure Centre.
Our swimmers encompass a broad spectrum of abilities, from non-swimmers to our gala squad swimmers. We also have a dedicated Adult group designed for experienced older swimmers.
