PRESIDENT
Reece Graham 6th Year Doctorate of clinical psychology I started late as a swimmer but I have been loving it for the last 10+ years. I joined LUSWP in 2019 and I've lived it ever since! In my time here I have been on the exec as captain twice and press twice. I have also been lucky enough to swim across perf and dev. I have made some of my best friends here and I hope everyone gets to experience that! |
VICE-PRESIDENT James Rates 3rd Year Medicine I have swam competitively for as long as I remember for clubs and schools around London. Recently making the transition to water polo I have found a new passion at university! Looking forward to another year of LUSWP success! |
TREASURER
Kirsty Williams 4th Year Medicine I started swimming when I was 2, and did competitive swimming from age 9 onwards, competing at county and regional level. I stopped during covid and was convinced to back after coming to Lancaster! I've also done lots of open water swimming. I've had the best time in LUSWp and I would love to try playing polo some time. |
WELFARE OFFICER
Holly Showler 3rd year medicine I've loved swimming since a young age, and joined a club at 9 years old. I competed at a regional level throughout my teenage years until 2020 when I took a brief break from the sport until restarting at the beginning of university, which is definitely one of the best decisions I've made so far at Lancaster! |

Jamie Mclaren 2nd Year Sport and exercise science I began swimming at 12 years old and have qualified and competed at a county, regional and national level.
