“Council, together with Belgravia, will continue to strive for a high level of service for the public and will work together to deliver exceptional aquatic facilities to our community.”

The pool will be open for an extra 30 hours per week in winter, with the facility opening at 6am (currently opening at noon) on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
