Our activities - enriching & empowering the disabled
We engage people with disabilities in stimulating activities that have an incredibly positive and life enhancing effect. Involvement in activities such as Swimming, Bowls, Gym, Yoga, Boccia, Kurling and exercise, including some competitive events, benefits our members in a number of ways. In addition to the advantages of exercise, people coming to the Leatherhead Swans Club can access other activities such as Bingo, craft activities, dance, karaoke and dough disco. Get to meet new people, make lasting friendships and be part of a thriving social scene that builds confidence and independence.
Additionally, members can learn to swim, achieve various certifications or take part in competitive swimming at our Galas all under the direction of qualified swimming coaches. There’s a dedicated disabled change area with overhead hoist, changing bench, shower and toilet. We also have a poolside hoist and chairs to support access into the pool. We organise two annual Swimming Galas where other clubs are invited and provide opportunities for our swimmers to attend other galas in the South East. These are always well attended and our swimmers often obtain outstanding achievements, which we always recognise.
