New film documentary tackling issues of inequality in aquatics 

Statistics from Sport England show that 95% of Black adults and 80% of Black children in England do not swim, and that 93% of Asian adults and 78% of Asian children in England do not swim. People from ethnic minorities are at an increased risk of drowning according to the World Health Organisation.

Blacks Can’t Swim REWIND opens the sensitive conversation and dialogue which previous would have been very uncomfortable to have with scenes based on lived experiences combined with real interview footage.
The drama follows two separate stories – that of both a 15-year-old boy and a girl, struggling with the effects of the stigmas and stereotypes that have helped shaped the narrative and thought process as to why a disproportionate number of African, Caribbean and Asians in England do not swim.

The film documentary addresses issues of inequality within the education system, aquatic career pathways and many more. There is clear evidence that REWIND has already inspired many people to overcome the myths and stereotypes by getting into the water for the very first time, as well as sign-posting opportunities many young people never knew existed whiles being an inspiration and steering them away from crime.
