A club for disabled swimmers and those with learning disabilities of all ages is welcoming new members.

The Redbridge Dippers Swimming Club has ­sessions at Fullwell Cross Leisure Centre, in High Street, Barkingside, twice a week.

The group was founded in 1977 by current president Hilda Lyons, who runs the club with a team of volunteers who work with members to allow everyone to enjoy swimming.

The club also runs social events, outings and trips.

Sessions are on Tuesday evenings and Sunday afternoons.

For information on joining, call Gloria Mead on 020 3556 4825.
