Discovering a passion for swimming
10-year-old Harry’s swimming journey began in the water alongside Mum, Maria. Since then, he’s developed his skills through weekly swimming lessons with Lexi and discovered a real passion for swimming.
Harry says:

Harry has a love for the water that continues to grow.
“Hi, I’m Harry. I began swimming alongside my mum, building my confidence and a love for the water.
Soon after this I started swimming lessons, my skills quickly developed and I continued to thrive. I have swimming lessons weekly (shout out to Lexi).
Alongside this, I regularly attend lane swimming sessions two or three times a week with my Mum. I complete between 80 and 100 lengths each time I go.
I started swimming in the medium lane and I soon became fast enough to move to the fast lane. I have a passion for swimming now and I love having a local swimming pool to use at Kidsgrove Sports Centre.”
Harry’s story is a fantastic example of how swimming lessons can help children grow in confidence, develop new skills and discover something they truly enjoy. We’re incredibly proud of the progress he has made and the dedication he shows every week.
