I’m wanting to get an indication of the amount of adults that would be interested in swimming lessons.
The local pools do have one class but it’s held on Tuesday only.
So for people not retired another class on a Monday night or Wednesday night would be great. If the pools were aware of there being a considerable number of people who would attend they may consider creating a new class.
Or there is also a possibility of someone who doesn’t work there holding an Adult swimming class independently of the pools??
Who’s keen??????
