What is it?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In regional WA, women lead mainly land-based lives, rarely encountering water. This lack of familiarity can affect their ability to enjoy water activities safely, especially when on holiday near water. This, in turn, perpetuates a cycle of generational non-swimmers in their children.

This project empowers regional and country women and girls to engage in swimming to break this cycle, and engage in the physical activity of swimming for recreation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are the details?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We will be offering swimming sessions at specific regional locations three times to deliver focused activities for women in the ocean or your nearest regional pool. Swimmers will be divided into groups based on their abilities and everyone is welcome! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
