We are pleased to be working in Partnership with Active Oxfordshire to be able to run the 10 week Swim to Slim programme here at the Windrush Leisure Centre.

Following on from our first Swim to Slim Course we have received some excellent feedback from the participants and we would love to share the feedback with everyone.

The first session was unbelievably welcoming, right from when I walked into Windrush, from the reception staff to the achieve coach and our swim coach Andy. I felt comfortable and excited to come back. 10 weeks later I'm swimming 3 times a week, off my pain medication and can now do 30 lengths in 30minutes where before I could only do 6! Andy's swim coaching was patient, knowledgeable and all round fantastic!

"I loved the swim course with Achieve in Witney, usually I do outdoor swimming so was unsure if I would enjoy being in a pool. I lost my husband a few years ago and since then have struggled to do anything for myself but swim to slim gave me more confidence than I could have imagined. It was great getting to know the other members and I've now signed up for a pay as you go membership which I use all the time!"

Tracy 

"Lizzie helped me to question the information I had from years of dieting, I now approach my food and exercise with more care and am always looking for the joy in everything I do. This might not sound like a lot but it has kick started me into losing 4.5kgs and I'm not done yet! I just wish the course was longer."

Pauline

"For the first time ever I am now swimming with my face in the water! I don't know how Andy managed to improve my swimming so much but his patience and coaching skills have really improved my swimming."
