Open to anyone aged 16 the NPLQ is the UK's leading lifeguard qualification and provides the skills and knowledge needed to work as a Pool Lifeguard. It's also a great way to build confidence, develop life-saving skills and gain a nationally recognised qualification.

Cancellation policy
Free bookings do not require refunds but as places are limited, please cancel if you cannot attend so that your place can be offered to someone else.
My experience consists of a leisure activity, on a specific date(s), and therefore the 14-day ‘cooling off period’ under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 does not apply.
