The Halliwick Association of Swimming Therapy (the UK's national Halliwick association) is starting a brand-new programme for new helpers within Halliwick clubs. It consists of six videos, and questions that go along with the videos. Those that complete the programme will be awarded a certificate by Halliwick AST. At the moment, they are piloting the programme, but any Halliwick club that wants to can email the address shown to express an interest for when the programme is rolled out more widely.
