Frequently asked questions

Do I need swimwear

Do I need to be able to swim to participate in the pool Find Your Float Practical session

To take part in the Float to Live practical session, you must be able to swim confidently, as the session will take place in the pool. This ensures your safety and allows you to fully engage with the activities. If you're unsure about your swimming ability, please speak to a member

I can't swim can I still practice Find Your Float

If you’re not a confident swimmer or unable to swim, you can still take part in the Find Your Float session on the dryside area. This option allows you to learn and practice the key techniques in a safe, non-pool environment.
