New groups etc.

There are insufficient numbers to run a second Time to Remember Course in November. However, it is hoped to run one in Spring 2019.

Another six week Water Confidence class starts on Wednesday 7 th November at 12 noon at the Hermitage Leisure Centre at Whitwick. The class would benefit people who are perhaps a little nervous of being in water, and will aim to improve general confidence as well as stroke technique, breathing, floating, being under water, jumping in or attempting to go that extra distance eg a width or a length. The group leader will be in the water with you and not shouting from the poolside. A maximum of four people can be accommodated to ensure individual attention. Each session will last for about an hour and the cost will be £3.80 per session. If you have been on a previous course, you would be welcome to attend this one also. Why not come and take the plunge? It's fun !!!

Details for the 2019 Walking holiday in the Lake District are now on the Walking Holiday page, but hurry if you wish to join in.
