Shankill swimming

SWIMMING

Swimming is great at any age but kids love our leisure pool layout, water features and wave sessions.  Swimming develops water confidence and survival skills, as well as proven social, mental and physical health benefits.

Swimming is free for kids that attend our swimming lessons and is included in our junior membership package.
