Deepings Swimming Club members keep busy during lockdown but look ahead to Deepings Leisure Centre reopening on September 7

The extended lockdown caused by the coronavirus pandemic caused havoc for many organisations, but one swimming club summoned all its resources to keep its swimmers engaged, fit and healthy while their local leisure centre remained closed.

Deepings Swimming Club paused its training in March after Deepings Leisure Centre closed.

But that hasn’t stopped head coach Lynn Chapman from keeping members engaged with the club through a series of fitness competitions and fun activities.
