Arun Dolphins SC for the Disabled Celebrate 30 Years!

The Arun Dolphins were formed in 1983, and the club is based at The Littlehampton Swimming & Sport Centre. The late Mrs Margaret Lewis, who founded the club, had had polio in her early twenties, and knew the benfits that the water could bring to anyone with a disability.

Since 1983 the club has gone from strength to strength, and this year The Arun Dolphins celebrated its 30th anniversary on April the 13th with a fantastic party, which was held at The Parkside Evangelical Church Hall.

80 members of the club, with their families, friends and volunteers, were joined by the Chair of Arun DC, The Mayor of Littlehampton and The Mayor of Worthing, to enjoy a Fish & Supper, and then danced the night away to a great Disco.

Some of our members, and helpers, enjoying the fun at the disco.

If anyone would like more information about the Arun Dolphins, please contact Joyce Adams on 01903 726531
