Ready to start your swimming journey or boost your confidence in the water? Join our Learn to Swim sessions, led by qualified and supportive instructors. Over 8 weeks, you’ll develop essential water safety and swimming skills in a friendly, encouraging environment.
All sessions will take place at Galashiels Academy in their 25m swimming pool, focusing on building your basic skills.
To sign up we ask for a £30 deposit which will be refunded to you on completion of the course. More details in the 'Refund Policy' section.
For more information, contact jordan.walker@hw.ac.uk
Participants who attend all 8 Learn to Swim sessions will receive a full refund of the £30 programme fee.
To qualify for the refund, you must attend every session in the 8-week block.
If you miss a session, you will not be eligible for a refund, unless your absence is due to a medical reason and you provide supporting documentation (e.g., a doctor’s note) within one week of the missed session.
All refund requests and supporting documents should be sent to swimming@hw.ac.uk.
If you have any questions or need further clarification, please get in touch.
