  • Number of places: 20

  • Description:

    The Leys pool is a traditional 25m school pool, with 1m and 2m depths at the shallow and deep ends, and with no lane divisions. There are communal changing rooms with showers. Car parking is available at the far side of the Leys site, a 7-10 minute walk from the pool. The session is supervised by trained lifeguards. There is no tuition or organised activity. For anyone with restricted mobility, the lifeguards can help with entry to the pool, and with exit. Most people swim lengths but how you swim is up to you. We are a friendly group and sometimes organise social get togethers. A free trial swim can be arranged. There will be no sessions on the following dates - 28 Oct, 17 Feb and 26 May. Note: A fee of £76 is payable with your course application; this covers the hire of the pool and lifeguards.

  • Format: Course or activity without teaching

  • Coordinator: Michael McCretton
  • It is a great pleasure to swim in The Leys Schools pool. We have it to ourselves and I find it a gentle and refreshing exercise which is particularly beneficial.
