It’s almost time to dig out your trunks and swimming costumes with the re-opening of Woodstock Pool just two weeks away.

The pool has been closed since 2019 due to the impact of Covid-19 but is now in the process of being cleaned and restored to pristine condition ready for the first swimmers to take the plunge on 22 July.

Cllr Jane Doughty, Cabinet Member for Customer Delivery, said: “This is fantastic news and I would like to thank the team from our leisure contractor GLL for doing such a fantastic job to get it ready in time for the school holidays.

“Swimming is such a fantastic way of getting fit and enjoying yourself at the same time. I am sure everyone of all ages will have a great time and I would encourage as many people as possible to book their place in advance.”

Prices will be frozen at 2019 levels to encourage more residents and visitors to use the pool as part of the Council’s wider ambitions to help improve health and wellbeing across communities.

Once re-opened, the pool will remain operating until 1 September. Opening hours will be 7am-7pm on weekdays and 9am-5pm at weekends.

All bookings are being managed through the online ticketing platform which will enable tickets to be pre-sold to avoid congestion at the reception counter.  Customers who cannot book online will be able to make advance bookings, secured with a payment, at reception.

The facility will fully comply with Covid-19 national and local guidelines at the time of opening.
