About this outing
Swim for All offers a more casual way to enjoy the water with family and friends. Forest Hill Pools has a 25-metre main pool and a separate learner pool. Choose an available recreational session and check which pool is in use before booking.
Planning your visit
- Under-eights and non-swimmers aged 11–17 must be accompanied by a competent adult swimmer, with no more than two such children per adult. Adults must actively supervise in the water; under-eights and non-swimmers remain in shallow water.
- Children over eight wishing to swim without an adult must pass the centre’s 25-metre recognised-stroke swim test. Check the operator’s rules for your child’s age and ability.
