Did you know that at Hilton Brown Swimming we run adult learn to swim, adult technique and adult advanced classes. Here is some feedback from a lovely customer who is moving from strength to strength in her learn to swim class.

"I just want to say how proud I am of my achievements since coming to the fantastic new Hobsonville facility.

I feel that I improve with every lesson.Thank you team, you are an awesome bunch of young professionals who are making such a huge difference to the community with such an important life skill. Huge appreciation for what you do."

Melanomas, in NZ, kill as many people a year as cars do

Melanomas can occur anywhere on your skin. Sun exposure will increase your risk of developing a melanoma but they can also occur in places the sun never shines.

To reduce your risk of all forms of skin cancer minimize your sun exposure. But like all things in life moderation is key. Enjoy the outdoors and sunshine, but cover up and protect yourself as best you can. In addition, maybe once a year get your skin checked.

Also it is wise to have a good look at yourself once a month with the help of the bathroom mirror. You’ll be surprised how good you are at seeing a new or different “mole”. In my experience most melanomas are recognizable by patients before they are lethal.
