A Masters aquatics club for adults 18 and over, founded in 1992 and the largest of its five branches with over 300 London members. Four coached swim squads share an August 2026 timetable across nine pools, with water polo (London Orca), artistic swimming (the Angels) and the Seahorses trans and non-binary swim alongside. The London swim training and lessons waitlists have been closed since March 2026.
