About this cause

Settle Area is a charity registered swimming pool, built with funds raised by the local community, for the local community & visitors of Settle & surrounding areas. Due to our location in the Yorkshire Dales with its watery scenery, Settle Area Swimming Pool was built to provide children with a safe place to learn to swim (a life skill) & a pool for the local community to enjoy. To this day, it is still managed by a committee of volunteers & welcomes people of all ages & abilities. Over the years, the variety of sessions has expanded & now the pool also contributes to the health & well being of our customers with sessions such as Aqua Aerobics and Hydrotherapy. Our pre-school session 'Splashing Tots' & 'Silver Swimmers' for senior customers also provide a weekly social gathering.

How this cause brings people in the community together

Settle Area Swimming Pool is a huge asset for the local community to enjoy. It provides important services such as primary school swimming lessons or care and support through our GP Referral session. Quite literally, the pool welcomes all ages and customers of all abilities and sections of the community. As a charity registered swimming pool we rely heavily on grants and donations. With high running costs, donations allow us to continue to provide a warm, friendly, easily accessible pool kept and maintained to the highest standards. Financial support WILL make a difference and will help us to continue to provide a pool that the community are proud of. With customer support we hope to improve our existing sessions and activities, in particular, enhance our provision for senior customers.
