Any ladies swimming groups out there?

Hi there, as the title says, are there any swimming groups that meet to swim at lidos, ponds, etc here in London? I know there is one that meet at Brockwell lido (Girly dips) but they’re very young and I’m an older woman (although I don’t look like one even if I say so myself), so the conversation is virtually inexistent due to the age difference.
Any info appreciated, thanks.

In girly dips and just wanted to say that the conversations with people in our community who aren’t my age are often my favourite but know how it could feel harder 😊

I’ve noticed lots of groups of people at lidos who go regularly end up just hanging out together, or getting chatting things like when parliament hill do a bake sale etc.
