Achievements 2020
The unprecedented Covid-19 global pandemic which began in March 2020 and is still on-going changed most plans for most organisations. However, SDSG does have achievements to share and remains hopeful for 2021.
Donation from Proudfoots: We started the year with a generous donation from the Proudfoot Make a Difference Locally scheme – whereby proceeds from the sale of carrier bags is donated to local organisations. This gave a good early boost to funds and a life -size photo was up in the Newby store all year, giving good publicity for our swim sessions.
Thanks for other donations received during the year including Tesco Bags of Help, Scarborough and Locals Together (SALT), Harbour Bar, Freemasons, GCHQ, Mayor Charity Fund, Rotary Club, North Yorkshire Sport.
SDSG was the winner of the Top Team Award in the local 2019 Sports Award which should have been presented at the Award ceremony at the Spa in March, but unfortunately this was cancelled due to Covid-19 and the announcements were made virtually on a video on the Sports Development Facebook page.
Well done to everyone involved with SDSG – it was good to have recognition for the Team behind the group as well as all the participant swimmers who make the group.
The Sensory project The committee had been working tirelessly with Everyone Active and Scarborough Borough Council on an ambitious capital project which
Page 6 of 12
Scarborough Disabled Swimming Group Annual Report 2020 brought state of the art sensory provision to Scarborough Sports Village in 2020. This was funded by a generous grant of £50,000 from Sirius Mineral Foundation (along with funding from other local businesses and grant giving organizations) and provides multi-sensory swim experience available at all sessions for our own group and local schools for people with a disability as well as the local Mencap Groups. The equipment can also be used by baby and toddler groups, older people groups, for young people swim disco’s and other groups on request.
Swim sessions 2020
Regular swim sessions began well in January 2020 with everyone eager to get back to swimming after the Christmas break. Our fortnightly sessions were well attended and supported by our regular volunteer helpers. In March the whole country was placed in lockdown due to the Coronavirus pandemic and swim sessions ceased in order to protect our vulnerable swimmers and valued volunteers.

Scarborough Disabled Swimming Group Annual Report 2020
Phased return from 22[nd] August After much thought and consultation with Scarborough Borough Council, Everyone Active and guidance from the Government and Swim England, all the relevant
Risk Assessments and Covid-19 protocols were completed and a safe phased return to swimming was arranged between August and the end of November. Swimmers who booked and paid on-line and attended these safe, socially distanced swim sessions were all very pleased to be in the pool and having the chance to do something fun, active, and to be out of the house. During this period, many sessions were booked and providing much needed active recreation. Regrettably again in late November there was a further lockdown and swim sessions once again had to be cancelled. We are looking forward to the vaccine providing everyone with the confidence for a return to swimming in the foreseeable future, once it is safe to do so for our swimmers.
Volunteers
Scarborough Disabled Swimming Group wishes to record thanks to everyone who has helped the group during the very challenging year of 2020. We are particularly grateful to our very willing and flexible volunteer helpers who have made themselves available whenever they have been contacted.
