Adults Learn to Swim

Now that summer is here there'll be crowds at the pool and the beach. But what if you can't swim?  Parents are encouraged to teach their children to swim but an increasing number of adults can't swim and don't have water safety skills.  Lifesaver Rob Bradley, swimming teacher Tracey Ayton and Jan Park, an adult learner, discuss the barriers to adults learning to swim and the need for a national focus on survival skills.
Listen to discussion on ABC Radio National's Life Matters 16-Dec-10.
