Swimming

Free swimming

Free swimming is available at all five of the council’s leisure centres for under-11s and over-60s living in Medway during normal opening times. To take up the offer, residents will need proof that they live in Medway and will be able to do this with a free Medway City Card.

All under-11s and those over-60 will need the card to take part in free swimming and can get one for free by applying for it online at www.medwaycitycard.co.uk/, or by completing a form available from leisure centres.

Adult to child ratios

Eight-year-olds and younger must be accompanied in the water by an adult. An adult is a 16-year-old or older. Three-year-olds and younger must have an adult in the water with them at all times. One adult may accompany no more than two four to seven-year-olds.
