I get support to do what I love- Swimming!

Hello, my name is Helen Cooke & my support staff know how much I enjoy being in water.

When I have been on holiday I always enjoy going to the pool.

My support staff Lorraine arranged for me to attend an accessible swim class at the Bewsy & Dallam community hub.

I am really enjoying attending this class.

To attend my staff supported me in purchasing a special new swimming suit that allows me to swim for as long as I like!

I am able to swim in the shallow end on my own, as long as I can feel the floor.

My staff also came into the pool with me which makes me feel safe.
