Update September 2021: Unfortunately we are currently unable to offer ~Diving lessons due to maintenance work.
Swimming lessons for stages 4 to 10 are being offered at the Hydro in Harrogate and at Nidderdale leisure centre. These are open to existing customers.
We hope to be able to offer pre-school and stages 1 to 3 lessons as lockdown restrictions ease further, and open all lessons to new customers as resources and capacity allow.
Unfortunately, we are unable to add new customers to our pre-school or beginner lessons.
Please visit www.harrogate.gov.uk/covid19 for more information and updates.

Follow in the footsteps of Yorkshire’s own Olympic diver Jack Laugher by learning to dive at the Hydro.
With a five-metre high board, two one-metre and three-metre springboards, we offer one of the most successful diving development programmes in the country.
Keep on track with the Swim England Diving Award Scheme; the Diving 1-7 awards cover seven levels of progressive diving skills, starting at complete beginner and taking the diver through to club level skills.
Lessons are available Monday to Thursday evenings and on Sundays. You must be able to swim 50 metres and be at least six years old. We also run mid-week disability diving lessons.
