[Swim England London @LondonSwimming]

We at @LondonSwimming stand with the black community against racism in all its forms.

Diversity makes our sport better. We will continue to work to make our sport a welcoming place for all our athletes, coaches and volunteers.

[Waltham Forest Gators @BWFSC_Gators]

We stand with George Floyd and the Black community.

We have a responsibility to speak out against racism and inequity, which has no place in society.

We hope all our members and @Swim_England competitors are with us on this one.

We are all stronger together
🙏🏻 🙏🏼 🙏🏽 🙏🏾 🙏🏿

Another successful Half Term Swim Camp took place last week. 15 swimmers chose to increase their training hours and work on making improvements to their strokes over half term 👍. Great to have Club Captain Ella R and Performance Swimmer (now qualified coach) Olivia leading camp.
