A SYNCHRONISED swim will be taking place during Weston's upcoming Good Grief Festival.

Good Grief Weston will offer 30 events spanning eight days, starting from Monday, May 1.

It is hoped that the festival, produced by Culture Weston in association with the University of Bristol and the newly established Weston-super-Mare Community Network, will help people open up about their grief and share their thoughts and experiences to others who are going through the same thing.

The swimming group will perform in Marine Lake on May 7, led by Paula Birtwistle alongside Culture Weston and Almost Synchro.

The group will perform one or two numbers and is inclusive of all abilities and experiences. Even if you've never done it before, it is never too late to try.

The group will be meeting from 6.30pm until 8pm tomorrow at the Front Room theatre. Those that are interested are invited to come along and learn more.
