Belfast leisure centres are to introduce new swimming lessons for people with autism, in a drive for inclusivity across the service.
A council report states: “Swimming Buddies have provided autism awareness training to the team at Brooke to ensure they have the knowledge and understanding to deliver inclusive sessions in both the sensory pool and air venture environments.
