This includes ensuring that the services and activities provided by the Council and its partners, including West Dunbartonshire Leisure Trust, are accessible and inclusive of children and young people with additional support needs (ASN). Therefore, it is disappointing that since 2020, there has been no swimming lesson provision for children and young people with additional needs, despite the budget for the Learn to Swim programme increasing every year, and there being an interest and demand for these lessons. As a result, families in West Dunbartonshire have been forced to travel to neighbouring local authorities for lessons, making it more costly and time consuming. It also leaves families who may experience transport or financial barriers with no options.

Council recognises the need to do better and requests West Dunbartonshire Leisure Trust to restart the ASN Learn to Swim programme using funds from the swimming development budget, which covers all swimming lessons, giving all of our children and young people the opportunity to develop this important and lifelong skill.
