Swing Den
This event will take place in person. While free lateral flow tests are still available until the end of we will require you to take a free NHS lateral flow test the night before/morning of the event and log the result on the NHS website or NHS app in order to gain entry to our larger events. You can find tests on the NHS website. Please make sure you have your NHS confirmation email/app showing a negative result to hand as you will be asked to show proof of confirmation of your negative test before being admitted to the event.
Swing Den is a social dance especially for beginners (though everyone is welcome). There’ll be a taster lesson at the start of the night and two teachers on hand throughout the evening to answer your questions and to help you develop your moves.
