Sheerness Swimming Club & Lifeguard Corps

The Sheerness Swimming Club & Lifeguard Corps is a group located on the Isle of Sheppey that provides instruction to non-swimmers, improvers, and competitive standard swimmers. It also provides life-saving instruction and personal survival training. During the period from June to September, members provide lifeguard cover on Sundays at the bathing beach on Sheerness seafront.

The group is the product of a merger between The Sheerness Swimming Club, founded in 1884, and the Sheerness Lifeguard Corps, formed in 1959. The two Clubs merged on 2 February 1969. The Corps celebrated its 125-year anniversary in 2009.
