Just to let members know, if you’re booking a swim with a carer via the app, the option to add a carer for free, under the Add More People menu, has been removed. The leisure centre aren’t sure why this is. If a member swims with the same carer every week, a ‘carer sub’ can be created, to link it to the swimmers account so that you can book via the app. Please ask at reception about this.
If a member swims with a different carer each week, or you are having problems booking a carer for a swim via the app, please book in and ask at reception.

Apologies for the inconvenience.

Please find below, entry forms for Rugby Sports Day. The Swimming Gala (pm) will be on poolside. The gala is handicapped starts similar to the NASCH system. All entries and fees to me as usual please. Sheila.
