Who we are
Splash Foundation is a charitable organisation creating opportunities for kids and adults from disadvantaged communities to experience the transformative impact of learning to swim. By 2030, we aim to teach 25,000 people! We work with migrant domestic workers, children and parents from low-income families, and children with special educational needs (SEN). Everything we do is guided by our core values: Welcoming, Heart, and Effective.
- Welcoming - We are friendly, inclusive and open to all
- Heart - We are passionate about swimming and committed to helping people succeed
- Effective - We are thoughtful in our approach and deliver results
The Splash Internship Programme
We are looking for energized, responsible students to support our summer intensive Splash Camps for kids ages 8+. This is a dynamic role where you will gain practical, hands-on experience working alongside professional swim teachers. You will learn how to teach swimming to youth (including those with SEN) and provide vital on-deck administrative support.
