Swim England
Swim England is the national governing body for swimming in England. We help people learn how to swim, enjoy the water safely, and compete in all our sports.
Our vision is of a nation swimming and we strive to inspire everyone to enjoy the water in the way that suits them.

About Us
We are incredibly proud of our history, which spans more than 150 years, while we welcomed HRH The Duke of Cambridge as our Patron in 2017.
In the same year, we also became an incorporated organisation with charitable status.

What We Do
From learners to teachers, athletes to coaches, we support people to achieve their best in the water.
Our research team provides detailed information about the people who go swimming – and those that don’t – to help develop new initiatives that encourage more people to take advantage of the many health and wellbeing benefits of swimming.
We want to get a nation swimming and for the sport to be truly inclusive for all. Find out more on our what we do pages.
