MEET

Join Craig and Jacquie as they share their experience and knowledge of swimming in the north east’s lochs, rivers and sea over the last 8 years.
The aim is that you leave this 3 hour workshop with all you questions answered and armed with the knowledge to go and explore Open Water dipping/swimming safely on your own (with a swim buddy or group of course!).

 

LEARN

  • How to cope with the cold

  • Equipment and wetsuits- what do you need?

  • What to consider when swimming in the sea/loch/river

  • Safe local swim spots

  • Joining local swim groups

  • Useful apps and websites.

  • In the comfort of the conference room

 

  ESCORTED SWIM

Escorted safe entry into the loch and a swim with the chance to practice putting your head in the water, sighting and rescue positions.
You choose whether you swim in a costume only or a wetsuit and you decide the  length of time you spend in the water.
Then hot showers, change and regroup with hot drinks and feedback.
