Celebrating the fantastic Pride Swims, with more to come this summer! 🏳️🌈 We are delighted to have held several Pride Swims, giving members of the LGBTQIA+ community “visibility and representation in sports”   One of the events at the London Aquatics Centre took place on Saturday 29 June. The event was part of a nationwide initiative that first made waves at the London Aquatics Centre during the Aquatics GB Swimming Championships in April.     Steven, who attended the Pride Swim with his family ahead of his daughter’s birthday, explained the importance of the event.    He said: “We have a lot of friends from the LGBTQIA+ community, and it’s great to be able to come and support them and show love and kindness through this event. We attended as a group of 14 people, and it was an excellent session which educated children on inclusivity whilst showing support to individuals feeling comfortable and confident. “   The initiative is run by Out & Wild Events, helping to support the physical and mental health of participants and encourage inclusion during Pride Season, from June to September. Chris Wells, contract manager, said: “We are thrilled to have hosted such an exciting, inclusive event for a wonderful cause. Whilst we are incredibly proud of our state-of-the-art facilities, it is the people and the sense of community which really brings the London Aquatics Centre to life. We look forward to hosting similar events in the future where visitors can improve their physical health and wellbeing in a supportive space.” Next up at Everyone Active - SLM: 🌊 Sat 3 Aug – Enderby Leisure and Golf Centre 🌊 Sun 18 Aug – Stratford Leisure Centre 🌊 Fri 23 Aug – Wythenshawe Forum 🌊 Sat 31 Aug – Grange Paddocks Leisure Centre 🌊 Sat 7 Sep – Moorways Sports Village and Waterpark

“𝙍𝙚𝙘𝙤𝙜𝙣𝙞𝙨𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮 𝙘𝙝𝙞𝙡𝙙’𝙨 𝙬𝙤𝙧𝙩𝙝” Tracey Angell named Everyone Active - SLM's Coach of the Year    Tracey Angell, Head Gymnastics Coach at Westgate Leisure Centre, was awarded the ‘Sports Coach of the Year’ Award, recognising her exceptional dedication and contribution to gymnastics coaching.    The annual awards aims to recognise outstanding colleague achievements across our entire business.     The award was presented by Stuart Mills, Everyone Active - SLM's Area Contract Manager, and Richard Minton, General Manager at Westgate Leisure Centre in a presentation alongside a group of Tracey’s pupils.    Tracey – who lives locally in Chichester - has been a gymnastics instructor for more than twenty years, following a career as a swimming teacher. Her journey into gymnastics coaching began when her young daughter started at a local club two decades ago.    "I was already a swimming teacher, which I loved," Tracey explained. "Watching my daughter at gymnastics, I realised there was an opportunity to make the sport more inclusive and accessible, locally. I wanted to create an environment where no one would be turned away, regardless of gender or ability."    This inclusive philosophy stems from Tracey's own experiences. "Growing up I loved sports which I excelled in. As I grew to my teens a teacher told me I wasn’t putting my full effort in and to try harder - which I was. It made me feel I wasn’t good enough. Stuart Mills, Area Contract Manager, praised Tracey's accomplishments: "Tracey's passion for gymnastics is clear for all to see and is the embodiment of what we strive for at Everyone Active.”   “It’s people like Tracey who make a huge difference in our communities and have a really positive influence on our children,” says Cllr Jess Brown Fuller, Cabinet Member for Culture and Events at Chichester District Council.
