Amazing effort by the team in London 🚴‍♀️🔥 Huge ride from Kate taking 2nd in a thrilling sprint finish!

What a night in London, the Nocturne was back with a bang. Another solid team performance in a very fast and aggressive race, ended with Kate finishing in 2nd place, losing out on the win by half a wheel to a very fast finishing Nina Levanu of AG Insurance.

The champagne was flowing!��

Supporting Drowning Prevention Week 13 – 20 June

As part of our contribution, LLA will include an element of water safety in every single swimming lesson delivered during the week. We want to engage with children and young people as early as possible, improving their knowledge and understanding of water safety and hope this will stimulate additional conversations at home.

We believe that swimming lessons not only build swimming skills but also equip individuals with the knowledge and confidence to stay safe in and around the water. By integrating water safety education into our lessons, we aim to empower our participants with the tools they need to make smart decisions and prevent accidents.

Together, let's make water safety a priority and work towards a future where accidents are prevented, lives are saved, and everyone can enjoy the water with confidence.

We are delighted to be supporting the RLSS drowning prevention week from the 13th – 20th of June.

Did you know that 47% of accidental drownings occur between May and August? Keep safe this Summer by getting involved and giving your family the skills to enjoy the water safely.
