ACCESSIBILITY AND INCLUSION
Purple hats For any swimmers who would like particularly close attention paid to them, perhaps due to a disability or medical condition, we can issue a purple hat at registration. We can then relay any relevant information to our safety teams, so they are on hand and informed when needed. We have a dedicated team of safety kayakers on the water, who form part of our wider water safety team with our lifeguards and safety boats. They are there primarily for your safety, but also to help you enjoy your day and succeed in your swim. With over 50 kayakers, they are never far away, and are always happy to engage in a mid-swim chat to help calm your nerves, or become a temporary pontoon while you adjust your googles or gather your nerves.
The Great Swim Team are on your side, to keep you safe and to keep you smiling.
