About Us

Millie May School of Swimming was established in July 2009 and brings together over twenty years of combined swim lesson management and teaching.

We recognise that swimming is not only for fun, but an important life skill for everyone and therefore provide lessons for babies through to adults. Our fully trained, qualified and experienced staff will guide and instruct you in a safe and clean environment. As a parent/guardian we will ensure that you are part of the experience and will encourage feedback and endeavour to make your visit to the lesson as enjoyable as possible.

The School also recognises that pupils need to see progression and when required will offer additional support through our referred stroke clinics to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to develop their skills.
