If you are a Newham resident aged 60 and over and 16 and under, you can now swim for free!

Eligible residents can now swim for free during public times at all four of Newham's leisure centres.

To apply for your free swims, simply register for a Newham Leisure Options card at any Newham leisure centre or online at the Greenwich Leisure Limited website. Proof of age and Newham residency required. You'll need to take the card with you every time you go for a swim.

If you're a weak or non-swimmer then the "Swim Safely" rules apply. Weak or non-swimmers must be accompanied in the water by a competent swimming adult at a ratio no greater than 2 to 1.

And don't forget your locker money. Lockers are either 20p coin retain or £1 coin return depending upon the Centre you visit.
