Salty Swims CIC

Salty Swims CIC The sea, once it casts its spell,
holds one in its net of wonder forever. Jacques Cousteau Participants will have their own swimming capabilities assessed.

Salty Swims combines the therapeutic values of outdoor swimming with social interaction to encourage positive wellbeing. Salty Swims specialises in ergo therapy, physical treatment for mental health conditions. The sessions are led by Ange Collins, a qualified swimming teacher, swimming coach, wellbeing and lifestyle coach and cold-water therapist. Support with group sessions as well as one-to-one sessions encouraging open communication alongside physical and mental exercise. Tuition and support in all aspects of outdoor swimming are included in the sessions, from safe water entry, riptides, swim safety, technique, physiological changes when swimming and safe practices are all covered. Almost anyone can float, and you do not have to be a swimmer to start experiencing the benefits of being in the water. Swimming holds no barriers; man, woman, old or young, we can all develop reach our own targets and support our own wellbeing. Swimming meets all our well-being needs; physical, mental and social. It has so many benefits so please come and give it a try. The sessions take place on local Cornish beaches particularly in St Austell Bay and surrounding areas. We run multiple groups throughout the week for ages, genders and experiences. So, if you are seeking something new, something exciting, want to make new friends and learn to swim in the open water, then reach out to Salty Swims for a new experience and to add to your wellbeing with one goal in mind – a healthy body and a healthy mind.

🌊Salty Swims Stands With Surfers Against Sewage🌊

Cornwall’s waters are our home, our playground, our sanctuary, and they deserve better. 🏄 🏊‍♀️ ⛵️

For more than 30 years, water companies have put profit before people and the environment. Sewage pollution is making swimmers sick, damaging livelihoods, and destroying the places we love. Enough is enough. 🤮 💩

Surfers Against Sewage have launched a powerful petition calling on the Government to end the profit‑driven sewage scandal, take back control of our water system, and put public health before payouts.

As a community that swims, dips, plunges and plays in these waters year round, we’re adding our voices!

Every signature strengthens the message:

💙 Our seas are not sewers
💙 Our health is not collateral
💙 Our communities deserve clean, safe water

Let’s stand together,swimmers, surfers, paddlers, dog walkers, beach lovers, and everyone who cares about Cornwall’s coast.



👉 Please take a moment to sign and share the petition:

We're sick of it. Sick of the lies, sick of the greed, and sick of a system rigged against us. This is a scandal and this dirty business must end. For more than 30 years water companies have put corporate greed and profit before public health and the environment.    Our privatised water sy...

🌧️ “Rain, Rain… oh come on now!” 🌧️

Honestly, here at Salty Swims we do love a bit of wet stuff, it’s kind of our whole personality. But this week/month/year?

This isn’t “a light shower”.
This is biblical, “build an ark”, “has anyone seen the sun recently?” levels of ridiculous.

The sky said “Oh, you wanted water? Have ALL the water.” Cheers, mate. 😩😩😩

And as if the sideways rain wasn’t enough, the pollution alerts have been popping off like it’s a game show. 💩

“Congratulations! You’ve won another day of NOT going in the sea!” ☔️ 🌧️ 💨

We love a challenge, but we draw the line at swimming in a giant cup of 💩 soup.

So for now, we’re staying dry(ish), grumpy(ish), and dreaming of that glorious moment when the sea is clean, the rain chills out, and we can get back to doing what we do best, getting into that cold water on purpose. 😊🥶🌊🏊🏻🌊❤️

Stay soggy, stay salty, and keep your towels handy! We’ll be back in soon ❤️❤️❤️

More from today in Penzance. Why not pop along to www.saltyswims.com and book a FREE session with us. ❤️🌊🏊🏻🌊❤️

The weather has been atrocious lately, forcing many of us to miss our usual swims and we’re bloody miserable about it to be honest 🤷🏼‍♀️😁

If you’re missing getting into the sea remember that just being by the sea, or a body of water, can improve your mental health and feeling of wellbeing, it’s called Blue Health.

If you’re at all interested follow the link, take a look at the website and read up about Blue Health, you’ll realise why just showing up and being by the sea is good for your health 😁

Our cold water swimming supports positive mental health and wellbeing.

Salty Swims Keeps Going, Whatever the Weather 🌬️ 🌊 🌧️

Cornish weather loves to keep us on our toes, but we’re committed to keeping Salty Swims sessions going whenever it’s safe to do so.

We know how much our classes mean to the attendees, the connection, the routine, the reset and we’ll always try our best not to cancel.

When conditions turn truly wild and we need to pause for safety, we’re incredibly grateful to Jubilee Pool for stepping in and supporting our community. Their warmth, welcome, and willingness to help us keep people swimming makes a real difference.

Today we will be Jubilee Pool for our class.

Thank you for your continued support as we chop and change our classes to try and stay running. Thank you for showing up with good humour, and for being part of something that’s bigger than the weather.

See you in the water at Jubilee Pool as the sea has said “not today”. 🤷🏼‍♀️😊
