Aim

We are raising funds to keep our club alive through this crisis and to help us get all our swimmers back in the pool safely.


1601377965_stubbers.jpgEpping Forest District Swimming Club are a friendly and inclusive club based in Loughton. We have been part of the community for over 40 years and have taught hundreds of local children to swim.  

We currently have over 400 members ranging from 4 years old to adults. Epping Forest District Swimming Club is a community club with the aim to promote competitive swimming in Epping Forest District. We aim to achieve this by providing a secure and caring environment where every member is valued and encouraged to work together as a team to achieve high standards in competitive swimming and to reach individual goals.

We are a well-known and valued part of the local community and hope to continue to provide swimming opportunities for local children and members for many years to come!

COVID-19 is making our wish to keep the club going, now and for future generations, more of a challenge as time goes on. As well as collecting members fees we need to raise money throughout the year to fund the running of the club. In normal years we do this with events such as our annual home gala, a Christmas gala, discos, bbqs to mention a few. 

Unfortunately this year none of these events have been able to take place and this is why we are appealing for your help in filling the gap that has been left. This will enable us to continue to offer local children the valuable service that EFDSC provides, not just the physical training but the positive impact the club brings to mental health which at this time is more important than ever.

We thank you for reading and appreciate any donation, big or small, that you are able to give.
