What is the Social Swim Series?

The Social Swim Series is our monthly social swim club, bringing together young social swimmers from across London.

The format? It's pretty simple.

Every second Sunday of the month we come together for a swim followed by coffee, pastries and a well-earned chit chat. There are also regular side quests — midweek sauna trips, weekend hikes and the occasional frothy knees-up.

Our mission? To build a welcoming community of likeminded, city-dwelling social swimmers who are up for making some new friends and generally keen for a good time.

How do I join?

Follow us on TikTok and/or Instagram and drop us a DM, or visit our sign up page, and we will add you into the Social Swim Series WhatsApp group chat.

You can also sign up to our Bobbing Along newsletter for the latest on our upcoming swims, side quests and other events.

Dates

Every second Sunday of the month, all year round. Regular reminders are posted on our Instagram and in the WhatsApp group.

Location

West Reservoir Centre, Green Lanes, Hackney, London, N4 2HA (Google Maps).

Time

Meet at 10.30am for the swim. We are usually in the cafe afterwards by 11.30-12pm if you would like to join for coffee.

Please remember...

Open water swimming slots at West Reservoir must be booked in advance on the Better Health website. There will be plenty of reminders on the WhatsApp group but please do remember to do this.

Please also remember to bring a red, orange or pink swimming cap (or hat / beanie) — the lifeguards won't let you swim without one. They do sometimes have swim caps you can borrow at the front desk.
