Holiday park operator Haven Holidays has teamed up with the Swimming Teachers' Association to offer guests to its parks free swimming lessons.

Haven will run its Learn2 Swim programme for free at all of its 35 parks during 2010.

Marcus van der Gaag, Haven's sports and leisure director, said: "We are very proud of our association with the STA.

"Many of our guests say that being on holiday is an ideal time to have swimming lessons, especially if they are on the holiday park for a week or more and can fit in three or more sessions."
