Monthly monthly swim session for queer and trans people aged 18 and over, with a donation to Trans Forward.
Queer Swim Club is back at Northgate Arena on Friday 13 November, from 7:15pm to 8:30pm. It's a swim session for queer and trans people, and it's part of the club's regular run of one session a month here in Chester.
The club started because swimming for queer people, and especially trans people, can come with a high barrier to entry. It's not just about the swimming itself; there's often a worry about safety in the pool. The whole point of these sessions is to provide a safe space where queer people can get in the water without that hanging over them. Whether you're there to get your laps in or just to splash about, it's a place to swim on your own terms.
It's a not-for-profit event aimed at people aged 18 and over. If you're bringing a carer, they can be accommodated too — just book a ticket for yourself and get in touch with the organiser. For more information, you can find the club on Instagram at @queer.swim.club.
