HELP for Heroes and GB Swimming came together this weekend to host a unique training camp in Plymouth for the wounded, injured and sick.

The camp, which forms part of Help for Heroes' Sports Recovery programme, provided the opportunity for Help for Heroes beneficiaries to train alongside the GB Swimming Team and work alongside some of the country's best swimming coaches, practitioners and athletes.

The camp was open to people of all abilities to provide a grass roots opportunity to get involved in swimming and also supporting educational workshops around how best to perform in sport and get the most out of their training.

The camp formed part of the Help for Heroes partnership with the British Paralympic Association to introduce military personnel to Paralympic sport.

Help for Heroes has been involved with Sports Recovery since 2008 and in the past year alone has offered 300 events across 50 different sports enabling over 2,100 wounded, injured and sick service personnel and veterans to take part in adaptive sports from grass roots through to performance level.
