On Swingbridge Tranquility, we welcome community groups and charities working with vulnerable and isolated people, individuals, and families. Young people and adults can take part in skills courses to boost their confidence and their practical and social skills. Our wheelchair lift means everyone can enjoy the wellbeing trips on the River Wey, regardless of mobility or other needs. 
Anyone can get involved with Swingbridge Endeavour’s environmental conservation projects along the Rivers Wey and Thames. Carried out throughout the year, volunteers, including people who might need support because of problems like poor mental health, addiction or relationship breakdown, work to improve our beautiful Surrey waterways for our communities and wildlife.
