SeeAbility (CSVA)
At SeeAbility we specialise in supporting people with learning disabilities and autism, who may also have sight loss, to realise their goals each and every day. We encourage people with disabilities to challenge what they expect from life, from themselves and from wider society.
Registered as The Royal School for the Blind, SeeAbility is one of the oldest disability charities in the UK and has pioneered specialist support for over 220 years.
As a Swim Buddy you will be joining the people we support in the water, helping them have fun and encouraging them to swim and play in the pool. One of our Support Workers will always be there for guidance and they will be responsible for the personal care of your buddy, but they may stay on the side during the time you're in the water.
To be confident in the water and a good swimmer.
To be kind, empathetic and friendly.
To have a good sense of humour and be enthusiastic.
To be reliable and punctual.
