We are a swimming
club for anyone with a physical or mental disability. The club was founded
in 1962 by Mr. Harry Parker, our late president, and was one of the first
organisations to use the (then) newly-opened Stevenage Swimming Pool.
As a UK registered charity, Registration Number 265658, we are dependent
upon donations and the goodwill of Stevenage Borough Council, Stevenage
Leisure Ltd. and the staff of the swimming pool. The club meets at Stevenage
Swimming Pool every Sunday at 4 pm when members may learn to swim, practice
swimming, practice for competitive galas.
The deck-level pool is equipped with a hoist to help those with a physical
disability in and out of the pool.
The club holds and attends competitive swimming galas. These are run to
NASCH rules. We hold our own annual
Club Championship Gala, usually in October. We compete at galas held by
clubs in our area, who are also invited to our own inter-club gala and in
the NASCH
region 3 championship. |
