Our Dolphins Swimming Group is perfect for people with disabilities or additional needs, along with their families and friends, who want to swim, relax, and have fun together in a safe, supportive space!
The Dolphins Swimming Group offers accessible, inclusive swimming sessions for people with disabilities and additional needs, along with their families, carers, and friends.
These friendly, supervised sessions take place in the main pool with two qualified lifeguards present. They provide a safe and relaxed environment where everyone can enjoy the benefits of swimming.
If a participant requires help getting in or out of the water, they must be accompanied by someone who can provide that assistance and is a competent swimmer.
Joining is easy! You can get in touch using the contact form below or reach us directly:

Dolphins sessions run on the 1st and 3rd Saturday of every month, from 5:00 pm to 6:00 pm, at the Five Rivers Health & Wellbeing Centre, Hulse Road, Salisbury, SP1 3NR.
All sessions take place in the main pool, with two qualified lifeguards on duty to ensure safety.
