Swinton Lock Activity Centre is a trusted safe space, committed to delivering emotional, social and wellbeing services, which are community led.
We are based adjacent to the South Yorkshire Navigational Canal and own two narrow boats, one of which is fully accessible. Both boats are used to offer boat-handling courses, volunteering opportunities and pleasure trips to both children and adults.
What we Do
Swinton Lock Activity Centre provides an extensive range of activities and support for both young and old.
Room Hire
Our location, facilities and ample parking also make Swinton Lock an ideal location for meetings, conferences and parties.
Boat Trips & Training
Join our experienced crew for a relaxing cruise along the canal. Learn how to skipper the boat and manage locks.
Open Days
We also hold regular open days where you can come to meet the staff and sample many of the activities we have to offer.
TODAY!! Get yourself down for a spud with all the trimmings, and a brew with a view!
Kids eat for free (under 11 years) with a paying adult and adults are priced at £2 per person.
A friendly face, good food and a cracking view- what a recipe for success!
Our thanks goes to our wonderful sponsor Rhino Financial Solutions Ltd for their continued support to make these events possible.
