Story
Nairn District ASC is aiming to offer children an amazing opportunity to be inspired to be the best athletes they can be. Mel Marshall offers a week long swim camp with Olympic swimmers to share their experiences and train with the youngsters.
Abi is 13 and trains 5 times a week with the NDASC and the Highland Swim Team. She has previously been to Mel's camps and wants other swimmers to have the same opportunity.
Donna has only ever swum for leisure despite spending considerable time at the pool and decided to help with the challenge.
