This Mental Health Awareness Week (11th-17th May 2026), we’re reminding our community that looking after your mental health can start with small, simple actions.
Swimming can be more than exercise, it can be time to breathe, reset, build confidence and feel connected.
As a charity-run pool, we’re proud to provide a welcoming space for people of all ages and abilities to enjoy the water, support their wellbeing and be part of the local community. Discover what sessions we have on this week at Gayton Pool here: https://gaytonpool.org.uk/bookings/
