Bambers Inclusive CIC is dedicated to transforming swimming education for individuals with diverse needs, particularly focusing on those with disabilities, special educational needs (SEN), and neurodiversity. At the core of our mission is the belief that everyone, regardless of their physical or cognitive abilities, deserves access to high-quality swimming education and the life-enriching benefits it provides. Under the leadership of our in-house Occupational Therapist, our approach to swimming instruction is multifaceted and deeply rooted in principles of inclusivity, adaptability, and empowerment. We recognize that traditional swimming programmes often fail to accommodate the unique needs of individuals with disabilities and other challenges, creating barriers that prevent them from fully participating in and benefiting from aquatic activities. To address this, we've developed a holistic and person-centred approach that goes beyond simply teaching swimming strokes – aiming to foster confidence, independence, and a sense of achievement in every learner. Our team of dedicated swimming instructors brings a wealth of experience and expertise to our programmes. Many instructors have personal experience with disabilities or neurodiversity themselves, providing them with an innate understanding of the challenges faced by our learners. This first-hand knowledge empowers instructors to think creatively, adapt quickly, and tailor their teaching methods to suit the unique needs of each individual. We firmly believe that diversity among our teaching staff is not only a strength but also a crucial component of our commitment to inclusivity and representation within the swimming education sector. Central to our approach is the integration of occupational therapy principles into swimming instruction. By leveraging the expertise of our in-house Occupational Therapist, we are able to identify and implement strategies to overcome barriers to learning and participation in swimming, whether they be physical, cognitive, or environmental. This may involve making modifications to swimming strokes, providing specialised equipment, or creating personalised learning plans tailored to each individual's goals and abilities. Beyond the pool, our impact extends into the broader community. We are passionate advocates for the inclusion of individuals with disabilities in all aspects of society and actively work to promote awareness, acceptance, and accessibility within the swimming and aquatics industry. Through partnerships with local schools, community organisations, and disability advocacy groups, we aim to break down barriers to participation and create opportunities for individuals of all abilities to experience the joy and benefits of swimming. In summary, Bambers Inclusive CIC is not just a swimming school – it is a catalyst for positive change, a champion of inclusivity, and a beacon of hope for individuals with disabilities and special needs. Through innovative programmes, dedicated instructors, and an unwavering commitment to our mission, we are transforming lives, one stroke at a time.
Key stakeholders include members of the disabled community, educators, swim instructors, and relevant organisations such as the Institute of Swimming and Swim England. Through ongoing consultation and collaboration, we ensure that our programmes and services effectively meet the needs and preferences of our stakeholders. We value their input and strive to incorporate their feedback into our operations to continuously improve the quality and impact of our services. This year, we launched a “Community Voice Panel” consisting of parents, carers, and service users, which meets quarterly to guide service development. Their feedback has directly influenced programme timings, environment adjustments, and even the introduction of a new aquatic play-based curriculum.
