In our commitment to providing the best Learn to Swim experience in Dover, Folkestone, and Deal, we are implementing a price adjustment from the 1st of January 2024. This adjustment is necessary to accommodate the increased costs associated with running SafelySwim.

As a business, we’ve experienced the impact of rising costs, like many others. Despite these challenges, we remain dedicated to delivering excellent customer service, welcoming new members, and providing support both in and out of the swimming pool.

We understand that news of a price increase may not be welcomed, we have worked hard to delay and minimise these changes for as long as possible.
