Sean's swim school sponsored success

Bexhill instructor Sean Collins and his team of staff were lane counting for the event at Bodiam Manor School, and children enjoyed the day by trying to swim as many lengths as they could - they all swam more than ever before.

The children each received a certificate and a variety of gifts supplied by Southern Water and Sean's Swim School, and it's estimated they have raised approximately 500.

The Demelza Community team provides a hospice at home service for children in East Sussex and South West Kent with life-threatening and life-limiting illness and their families.

The service complements the care offered at Demelza residential sites, with the Demelza Community specialist paediatric nurses going directly into the family home to provide care, crisis intervention, an on-call service and respite.

The service enables the family to live life as a family in their own environment - and coupled with Demelza residential services - greater flexibility in available care provision.

Medical help and expert advice is available in the home, freeing up time for parents to revert to their roles of being Mum and Dad again.

When a child reaches the end of its life the Demelza Community team can offer 24 hour end of life care at home followed by bereavement support to members of the family, as required.

Sean's Swim School would like to thank all the staff for volunteering to help run this successful and enjoyable event and also to Bodiam Manor School for allowing them to use the pool.
