Rich Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Try Upperthorpe Baths in S6, run by Zest. The telephone number (from memory) is 2702040. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

debs-b Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Hi, try DJ Swimming or could be DJR, David Robinson is his name. They teach at Brunswick Primary School in a small pool that's fairly shallow. They are great with my grandson who is severely disabled. He is like another child in the pool, he is free and independant and can move freely. It's lovely to see him so happy. I think they do lessons at other pools. Try them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eeejay174 Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 upperthorpe do, they offer 1-1 sessions, ring zest and they can help you. My 2 have aspergerd adhd and dcd, and they are doing really well, they started having 2-1 lessons then progressed onto the group. experienced with teaching special needs, small pool, small classes cant recommend hihly enough. Im sure there are other lessons at mosborough and graves park. Prices range from £18 to £25. hth emma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
