After an incredible 33 years, we have some bittersweet news to share 🫶

Our lovely Linda is stepping down from her role as Lesson Coordinator at the pools. Over the past three decades, she has helped shape the swimming journeys of countless children, supported generations of families, and worked alongside so many staff members. The stories, memories, challenges, achievements, and laughs along the way would be enough to fill a book! 🤣

The good news is that Linda isn't going far. She will be continuing as one of our swimming teachers, so she'll still be in the water doing what she loves most – teaching and inspiring children to swim 🏊

Everyone at the pools would like to thank Linda for her dedication, hard work, passion, and commitment over the last 33 years. Her contribution has been truly remarkable, and we are incredibly grateful for everything she has done.

One small request... please don't stop her in the street to ask about your child's breaststroke legs anymore! 😄

Please join us in wishing Linda all the very best in this next chapter and share your good luck messages, memories, and thanks in the comments below 💙

If you love swimming, outdoor pools, or a good book, this sounds like a lovely evening 📚💦

Author Emma Simpson will be at Waterstones Canterbury on Monday 18th May talking about her book Breaking Waves ahead of a visit to Faversham Pools the following day.

Breaking Waves has been hugely popular within the outdoor swimming community, so we’re excited to help spread the word and support the event.
