Our Winter term runs from 4th January – 12th March 2012! If you want to become a member, our membership page explains how simple it is. If you are already a member, just click here to renew for a term online

After over £100,000 of work to modernise our 70 year-old pool, we opened on schedule on Saturday 8th October. Well done Karen, Claire Timbrell, our pool manager, with Tom and Jean Atkinson, Richard Dunkling and the team who’ve been working so hard to get the pool ready. So as you carve the water before you, look around and marvel at what we can all do together. Wow!

These are the swimming slots we are running for the Winter Term.

Mornings: Weds 7-8am/ Sat 9-10am
Lunchtime: Fri 12-1pm/ Sat 12-1pm (shared)
Evening: Mon 7-8pm/ Thurs 7-9pm (shared)
Afternoon: Weds 2-3.30pm (shared)

The cost is £75. We also have a special offer for Students and Staff of WFC. Check out the membership page for when to swim and how to pay.

Take a look inside and try us out with a free swim!

Film maker, Jonathan Brind, is an FOTP member. Here’s his short film about the pool he loves. Take a look inside…. and if you like what you see as much as we do, then why not try it out for real. When we re-open after 20th August you can come for a free swim. Contact us first, come along with costume and swimming cap. If you like your swim, fill in a form, pay online and join us. No commitment, but we think you’ll love it. (See below how to join/renew)
