I'm not confident swimming lengths - can I swim in the pools?
We have introduced relaxed sessions for adults. These sessions are for any adult who is not comfortable or able to swim lengths in our lane swimming sessions.
The pool is divided width-wise into four. Two of these areas will be for anyone who wants to swim widths, and you won’t need to get out of the pool if you want to take a break, as long as physical distancing is maintained. The other two areas will be for customers who just want to enjoy the water but not necessarily swim widths.
