If you’ve been thinking about it but not yet made the leap, well here’s your chance! 🤗

We offer FREE weekly swim sessions for all financial members every Tuesday at 10am at Napier Aquatic Centre 🏊🏼‍♀️

It’s not about swimming laps or breaking records. It’s about moving your body, building strength and mobility, having a laugh and connecting with other amputees who get it. 🦾

We have a qualified trainer at every session, so come along, give it a go and make a splash with us 💦

All abilities welcome.
Questions? Give James a call on 027 499 9258.

What a privilege for Vikki and I to attend An Afternoon with Dame Sophie Pascoe yesterday 🥇🏊🏼‍♀️

Sophie shared so openly about her journey, the highs, the challenges, life beyond competitive swimming and what she’s learned along the way.

For our amputee and limb difference community, there’s something pretty special about seeing someone who has represented New Zealand on the world stage speak so honestly about resilience, mental health, identity and embracing what comes next.

An inspiring afternoon with plenty of laughs, perspective and a few great reminders that our differences never have to define our possibilities.

Thank you, Sophie, for continuing to inspire both in and out of the pool. 🇳🇿💛

Thank you Hawke's Bay Chamber of Commerce and Westpac NZ for putting on a fantastic event.
