Adaptive and Inclusive Swimwear

Practical swimwear designs for comfort and discretion are available, no matter your needs. Swimwear designs include adaptability or practicality, and we highlight some of the features available.

Swimwear is available with the following features:

• Slip-on or wrap-around swimsuits that are easy to put on
• Swimsuits for people with burns who need to avoid sun exposure
• Swimsuits or shorts for bowel and bladder incontinence are available in sizes for children, youth and adults
• Leakproof swimwear that is odour-fighting and protects against pelvic floor mishaps, spotting, or light periods
• Reusable swimwear briefs for incontinence
• Floatation swimwear
• Variations in fastenings from Magnetic, Velcro, Studs or Zips
• Swim fins for below-knee amputees to aid the swim stroke
• Ruched designs that help hide ostomy bags
• Specialist swimwear for ostomates
• Ostomy swim wraps and bands
• Mastectomy swimwear that keeps or holds prosthetics in place.

And there are protectors for ears – to keep ears dry and water-free. Known as ear bands, they can help keep earplugs in place and are available for babies through to adult sizes.

Many of these swimsuits and accessories can be claimed with NDIS funding, so if you are an NDIS participant, talk to your LAC or Coordinator about getting them included in your package.
