MEMBERSHIP

As a membership charity you will need to join before attending one of our swim sessions and activities.

Membership

Membership is open to anyone aged 50 and over and anyone of any age with a disability.

SDSG believes in the holistic approach to support, therefore, each paid up member can bring their family, carer(s) or a friend with them (subject to entry fees), as long as they complete a membership form.

Once you have submitted your membership form(s), and paid your membership*, you will be provided with a booking password to enable online bookings.

Note: Membership is not confirmed until your first swim session, subject to any additional questions.

Cost:

To help pay the charity insurance (inc member insurance) and general running costs, each household (or individually if in supported living/care home) pays an annual membership fee, which is due upon joining and in January each year. See downloads for example costs depending on your situation.

Annual Membership: £8.00*

There are also session/activity entry fees to help pay for pool hire, lifeguards, volunteers and equipment costs.

Swim Entry Adult: from £6.00

Swim Entry Child: from £4.00

Once you have returned your membership form(s) you will be emailed a payment link to enable you to pay your annual membership by debit card online.

*If you are a tax payer we can claim back the tax paid on your membership fee, an additional 25% through Gift Aid. Please complete a declaration or a Gift Aid Envelop during one of our sessions.

Forms:

To help keep you safe, every person in the pool must have completed a membership form.

Each person with a disability or health condition must complete a Health Membership Form and answer questions about their health. All other swimmers must be listed and have signed a Companion Multi-Carer/Family Form confirming their details.

This is an insurance requirement.
