"We're delighted to be a part of such an exciting partnership." - Matt Maguire, Head of Programmes at Level Water About Level Water Level Water gives children with disabilities the opportunity to learn to swim. From physical development to social and emotional confidence, swimming is a vehicle to change their lives for the better. To make this happen and create long lasting impact, Level Water knows it can’t be done in isolation. Level Water unites and collaborates with teachers, families, fundraisers, pools, supporters, governing bodies – and children with disabilities. They help the whole industry to share this mission. Its goal is to kickstart a love of swimming in children with disabilities. A love that acts as an example of everything that life can offer them, starting from that very first splash. It sees a future where all children benefit from physical health that’s matched with a mindset of optimism and positivity, of going for it and seeing what’s possible in life. Starting with their specialist swimming lessons, Level Water creates opportunities for children with disabilities and their families.
