Becky Adlington encourages families in Manchester to ‘just keep moving’ this summer

Finding Dory swim sessions in Manchester

On Monday 18th July, double Olympic gold medal winning swimmer, mum and Stockport resident Becky Adlington will be at the Arcadia Library and Leisure Centre swimming pool in Manchester to encourage local families to ‘just keep moving’ this summer. Becky is teaming up with Disney, Change4Life and the Amateur Swimming Association (ASA) to launch nationwide interactive family swim sessions and a brand new 10 Minute Shake Up campaign – all inspired by the new Disney·Pixar blockbuster, Finding Dory.



The event will marks the upcoming launch of Finding Dory swim sessions.

The joint campaign launches family swim sessions at hundreds of pools across the UK, including a number in Manchester and the local area, as well as new 10 Minute Shake Up activities, in a bid to make exercise fun and help children get the 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity they need each day.

Campaign ambassador Becky Adlington, comments:

Since I stopped competitive swimming a few years ago, I understand how tricky it can be to fit exercise into a busy routine – and also make it fun. As a mum, it’s even harder. But I’m passionate about inspiring the future generation to get active and that’s why I’m in Manchester today supporting this summer’s campaign from Disney, Change4Life and the ASA. The summer holidays can seem really long but there are loads of great ideas to get kids up and about with new 10 Minute Shake Ups, and what better way to spend time together than enjoying a family swim session where you’re learning key skills.”

They will be taking place nationwide, including 30 pools in the North West region. Booking for the swimming sessions is now available at the following locations:
