15. Giving back

Two volunteers in hi-vis jackets helping swimmers out of a lake after a swim

Summary

We can only swim because of other people’s actions, in both professional and voluntary roles. We should play our part in encouraging other people to swim and making sure future generations have the same or better opportunities. Even small actions make a difference. Remember too that taking part is a form of giving back. There are countless volunteer opportunities in swimming and many qualifications you can earn to give back more formally. Finally, be an advocate and campaigner for swimming.
