    Australians aged 45 years and over are being encouraged to consult their doctor before enjoying the health benefits of swimming to prevent drowning deaths involving people with pre-existing conditions.

    Before you jump in:

    • Chat to your doctor about your health
    • Consider the effects of any medication you are taking
    • And remember it’s safer to swim in a supervised area

    When it comes to safety, socialising and support there’s not better plan than swimming at your local Aquatic Centre.
