Nick could swim before he could walk! With parents involved in swim teaching and coaching, Nick was encouraged into the water at a young age and still loves the water today. Nick is now the RNLI Water Safety Lead for the North and East of England.

After an impressive national level swimming career, Nick qualified as a Level 1 & 2 swim teacher & gained coaching qualifications to start a journey in helping others enjoy the water as much as he does.

I love everything about a swim tour: meeting new people, hearing stories of life, expanding experiences through water and discovering new exciting locations to take a dip in! My work role now includes working for the RNLI in the drowning prevention & water safety department and fitting in as many trips with SwimQuest as I can.
