A 90-year-old who started swimming regularly at 70 has been given life membership at her Worthing club.
Fellow members of Worthing Swimming Club say Tessa Sprange, from Goring, is an inspiration and proves no one is too old to swim.
Twice a week for the past 20 years Tessa has attended classes at the Aquarena.
She said: "I get a lot of pleasure out of swimming and I enjoy the social side of the swimming club as well.
"I like doing the back stroke best because it doesn't take a lot of energy and I can just keep going."
The club's adult swimming co-ordinator, John Dommen, said she was an inspiration to club members.
The club is also celebrating the achievements of one of its youngest members.
Rachel Gilbert, nine, a pupil at Thomas A'Becket Junior School in Worthing, is winning county gold medals.
