The DC Leisure Group has now signed up for the Amateur Swimming Association's Awards Scheme, which will operate at both the Malden Centre and the Kingfisher, Kingston. Nick met pupils from Corpus Christi primary school, New Malden, showed them his Olympic silver medal and said winning a five metre badge at the age of seven started his interest in swimming.
