Each year, the charity British Blind Sport holds it's, free and popular, swimming gala for visually impaired children aged 3 to 17.

There's fun for beginners and competitions for swimmers who like a challenge and everyone is welcome.

RNIB Connect Radio's Allan Russell spoke to Philippa Bass, from BBS, to learn more about the event and how you can register to attend.
