Clackmannanshire Council has started its new season of swimming lessons, moving from Alva pool to Tulliallan Police College Pool - and you can come and try the first session for free.

Sessions start on 12 September, with lessons from 5pm to 7pm on Mondays and Thursdays. As well as Scottish Swimming Association levels 1 to 8, there will be parent and child and swim fit sessions. All sessions are staffed by highly qualified coaches and parents receive a feedback report on their child's progress after every lesson.

Councillor Bobby McGill, spokesperson for sport, said, "I'm delighted that we've been able to secure Tulliallan as a venue for our swimming lessons. It's a deep pool, which means we'll be able to offer diving and deep water exercises, and because we have exclusive use of it for these times customers will really be able to concentrate on improving their swimming."

At just £4 per lesson, the sessions remain great value and customers are invited to try their first session free of charge. The pool is only available for booked sessions, not recreational swimming, and you must register to gain entry, so please book in advance by calling Clackmannanshire Council's Sports Development Team on 01259 452350. Priority will be given to existing customers.
