On November 4th, teams of elite swimmers and business leaders will race around Hong Kong Island to raise $2.5 million and address the chronic swimming illiteracy in the city.

At Splash, we believe everyone should have the chance to learn to swim. It’s the only sport that can save your life after all. With this in mind, we run free adult swimming programmes for migrant domestic workers and refugees, as well as programmes for kids from low income communities.

Splash's FREE Learn to Swim Series is available to anyone in the world wanting to learn to swim. These videos are intended for absolute beginners and show the progression of skills required to be an efficient and confident swimmer. With over 2million views and counting, we are reaching people in places like Indonesia, the Philippines, India, and Bangladesh!

Patient? Fun? Caring? That’s really all the qualities you need to become a volunteer Splash coach. That combined with a large smattering of enthusiasm, a decent competency in the water and a belief in the power of swimming to transform lives. You don’t necessarily have to have coached before, as we will provide customised training. And did we mention the rewards are humongous?

We are passionate about swimming and committed to helping people succeed.  But we are not alone!  This autumn we celebrate the people who go above and beyond to make swimming accessible to others.
