Story
Pyjama Week teaches our swimmers invaluable personal survival skills and raises money for charity; all while having lots of fun!
Wearing pyjamas during swimming lessons is about more than just having fun. Most accidents will happen while your child is fully clothed, so Pyjama Week will give a great indication of what this will feel like. It will help them realise that they will feel heavier, but they will still be able to do important life-saving skills like kicking to the surface and reaching for the side.
This year, we hope to have the most successful Charity Pyjama Week ever! We are so excited to be holding this event again and for some of you it might be your first time. We have a national charity partner, a wonderful organisation called Children's Hospital Pyjamas. We emailed all our lovely customers about them earlier this month, but if you would like reminding about the wonderful work they do then you can read all about them and how you can support them here.
Sponsor our team - The River Calder Challenge - our team are going to undertake a virtual swimming challenge to swim the distance of the River Calder during that week! This is 72km (or 72000m), this equates to approximately 2880 lengths of a 25m pool! Please show your support to our team by either sponsoring them at the pool or via this page.
We would love your little one to be sponsored for completing a personal survival lesson plan in their pyjamas. You can download a sponsorship form here (insert link) if you want to get started! Every child who raises sponsorship for their child, will go into a draw to win 10 FREE Puddle Ducks lessons within our franchise too!!!
No child wants to be in hospital, and no child chooses to come from a family struggling.
With our donations we spread a bit of comfort at a time when children are at their most vulnerable.
