Introduction
At Hornsea Leisure Centre we offer a 25m, 4 lane pool, with attached learner pool. We have the "Village Style" changing cubicles, including disabled, family and individual changing rooms, with mother and baby facilities.
Admissions Policy
All East Riding Council swimming pools are required to have a written policy regarding the admission and supervision of children.
The basic ratio is that in the learner pool 2 children under the age of 8 must be supervised by at least 1 adult over the age of 16.
In the main pool under 4's must be supervised on a 1 to 1 basis. 4 to 7 year olds however require 1 adult to 2 children.
Early Risers
The early risers session is every week day morning from 7am. This length swimming session is aimed at customers wanting to develop and maintain fitness. For some it's the only time they get the chance to swim, before work or looking after the family, everyone still wants to exercise.
