Our family take
A practical rainy-day swim for families who want time in the water rather than a day of slides and rides. The centre lists baby and children’s pools alongside its larger pools; check which are open for your chosen session. Events can change access.
- Check before setting off. Competitions and other events can close pools or restrict access. Building opening hours do not guarantee a family swim.
- Under-eights need supervision. The adult-to-child ratio depends on each child’s age; check the current rules before booking.

Make it work for your family
Choosing a family swim
The centre lists a baby pool and a children’s pool as well as 50-metre and 25-metre pools. A recreational swim is different from a lane-swimming session or a lesson, so check the timetable and which pool your family can use.
For children under eight, plan the adults in your group around the supervision ratios. For a mixed-age group or if you need help choosing a session, check directly with the centre. Independent swimmers aged eight and over have no additional age restriction in the published policy.
Changing, food and access
Baby changing and a Changing Places toilet are listed at the centre, along with wheelchair access. Ask about a particular pool, transfer or buggy arrangement if it matters for your visit.
There is a café, though its hours can differ from the pool timetable. The centre also lists an outdoor play park; check the weather and allow time if you want to add it to your swim.
