Today, the term 'Bluetitting' encompasses all that we get up to at a swim. We love the water, we are brought together by a love of being in it, and there's so much more that goes on around it should you wish to throw yourself in!
So, this is a little guide to what to expect when you're joining a Bluetit group or heading to a swim!
Our Bluetit Swim Coach programme is a huge deal for The Bluetits as an organisation and for the community. It means that our first bursary-funded project is directly investing in a safe, confident and capable community, and empowers both those taking part in the coaching and the coaches themselves. We are incredibly excited!
When The Bluetits first began, it consisted of a few friends dipping on Porthsele beach in Pembrokeshire, and sitting around a fire afterwards, putting the world to rights and having a good laugh while doing it. Badges were always a feature of The Bluetits, and as it grew, Sian and her husband Alan found that the expense of badges alone was getting a bit out of hand! So, in September 2020, The Bluetits became a social enterprise that needed to sustain itself and wanted to achieve social aims in line with The Bluetit ethos.
