So after just over 9yrs I say goodbye to @SwimWales to take on a new adventure. I have been incredibly fortunate to have been able to work with some great swimmers, coaches and colleagues. Thanks to everyone who has supported Para-Swimming and helped develop to what it is today – at Swansea, Wales

Excellent first day at #JuniorParaSwim18 championships in Southampton. Always brings home the reason we do our job, when we see new swimmers competing for the 1st time and how far current swimmers have progressed! Down to hard work, great coaching and amazing support networks
