To ensure everybody who attends our fun sessions can enjoy the facilities, we have the following safety advice and rules:

• children under the age of 8 must always be closely supervised by an adult in the pool and when using the flume
• we operate a wrist band system to manage numbers in our leisure pool. They are issued on a first come first served basis, if you wish to swap pools, please return your band to enable other users to access the pool
• diving is only permitted from the deep end of the main pool
• users of the inflatable will need to prove they are able to swim over 25 meters unaided and without stopping. We will issue bands as proof of competence, swimmers will need a band to use the inflatable
• no floatation aids on the inflatable
• no over 16s on the inflatable
• no swimming under the inflatable
• lifeguards will signal when it is safe for individuals to go onto the inflatable
• no diving off the inflatable, individuals must slide or jump feet first into the water where possible
• for your own safety, do not attempt to climb on to the inflatable from the pool
• do not jump on to the floats from the side
• remain seated when using the floats
• when using the flume please exit immediately so that the next rider can go
