Welcome to Everyday Swim
Welcome to everydayswim.org! Everyday Swim is about encouraging people to swim for leisure, fitness and fun. Projects are underway across the country to look at new ways of making all pool activity more accessible and popular. We are keeping track of what works well and why. This website is one way of sharing the learning from Everyday Swim so across the country we can drive up the number of people who make swimming part of their everyday lives.
So come on in, the water is great!
Duncan Goodhew, Everyday Swim Ambassador
Welcome! This site includes lots of great information for people who have an interest in how swimming is delivered and what people think about it. You will also find 'what's on' and news on the Everyday Swim project areas and if you’re thinking about learning to swim then there’s loads of useful information in ‘Start Swimming’. If you have any questions, comments or suggestions about the site, or the Everyday Swim project, then please contact us at everydayswim@swimming.org.
