Stay healthy when using our Swimming Pools

Help keep our pool clean and safe for everyone by following these simple steps:

Shower before you swim

Please take a full shower before entering the pool.
This removes sweat, dirt, and bacteria and helps keep the water clean.

Do not swim if you’ve been unwell

If you have had sickness or diarrhoea, do not use the pool for at least 48 hours after symptoms stop.
For some illnesses, a longer period may be needed—please follow medical advice or consult your doctor before returning to swimming.

Practice good hygiene

  • Avoid swallowing pool water
  • Wash hands after using the toilet or changing facilities
  • Take children for regular toilet breaks

Keep others safe

Following these guidelines helps prevent the spread of illness and keeps the pool enjoyable for everyone.
