By partnering with us, your company directly helps ‘turn the tide’ on drowning – the world’s third leading cause of unintentional injury death.
Through our corporate sponsorship programme, we offer a route for you to meet your organisation’s ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) goals while making a measurable, life-saving impact on children around the world and right here in the UK.
Drowning is a silent epidemic that disproportionately affects children.
Our work directly supports the World Health Organization’s commitment to drowning prevention and follows its guidance.
Your sponsorship will go directly to saving lives, by funding drowning prevention measures at our partner programmes and in the UK.
We celebrate our partners across our platforms, from our international volunteer network to our social media, to our high-profile events like the English Channel Relay.

Are you passionate about swimming and drowning prevention, and want to make a difference?
At SwimTayka, our volunteers are at the heart of our mission. We connect volunteers with the needs of our global partners, working together to bring drowning prevention skills to local communities.
We work all over the world, supporting programmes in countries like Peru and Brazil, Uganda, Jamaica and Vietnam.
Our volunteers have a particular expertise our partner programmes need – they may be swimming instructors, first aiders, or trained in CPR.
And by volunteering at a programme, and training up local communities, they support our mission towards creating a sustainable future, where drowning prevention becomes part of the culture.
Why not get in touch to find out more about volunteering, the life-changing experience it offers, and how you can support our drowning prevention mission.
