Swimming is more than just fun—it’s a vital life-saving skill. According to Swim England, it’s the only sport that can save a child’s life, with drowning being a leading cause of accidental death. The Royal Life Saving Society stresses that drowning is preventable, yet over 300 lives are lost yearly in the UK and Ireland.
Beyond safety, swimming offers physical and mental health benefits, improving heart health, strength, flexibility, and confidence. It’s also an inclusive sport, accessible to children of all abilities. However, for many low-income families, lessons remain unaffordable, leaving children in deprived areas at greater risk of missing out on this essential skill.
Sponsorship Opportunities
Freedom Leisure Worcestershire invites your business to partner with us by providing financial support for this initiative. Sponsorship can be structured in two ways:
Direct Sponsorship
- Your business can directly sponsor swimming lessons for low-income children, covering the costs of training sessions, qualified instructors, and essential swim gear.
Corporate Fundraising Initiatives
- Alternatively, your business could engage employees in a fundraising campaign to collectively support this cause. We can assist with materials and ideas for team-based fundraising events, such as swim challenges or workplace fitness events, making participation rewarding and meaningful for your team.

We would be delighted to discuss this opportunity with you in more detail, explore potential partnership models, and outline a sponsorship package that aligns with your Corporate Social Responsibility goals.
