Relaxing restrictions at Jesmond Pool and Gym
With the latest announcement on the government COVID response roadmap, we have made plans to relax the restrictions we have had operating at the pool and gym from July 19th. We are delighted to be able to welcome more people back to the building, while working to ensure everyone is as safe as possible.
Here is a summary of the key points.
Relaxing restrictions at Jesmond Pool and Gym
With the latest announcement on the government COVID response roadmap, we have made plans to relax the restrictions we have had operating at the pool and gym from July 19th. We are delighted to be able to welcome more people back to the building, while working to ensure everyone is as safe as possible.
Here is a summary of the key points.
1. Please continue to exercise caution!
Do not come to the building if you have symptoms which are suggestive of covid, if you have had a positive test, or if you are self-isolating. We are relying on everyone to take responsibility for themselves and each other.
2. Enhanced cleaning
We will continue to maintain our enhanced cleaning of the facility; we will keep the screens which are in place in reception and in the gym. Given the infection rate is still high and we are entering a third wave and cases continue to increase our requirements around wearing a face covering when entering the leaving the facility will remain in place. The safety of our customers and staff is paramount to us and we therefore will keep this in place for now.
3. Numbers restictions
Although the pool, sauna, gym and activity room will all be open, there will be restrictions continuing on the numbers using them. The maximum capacity in the gym and pool will be 40 people, and the maximum number for classes will be 20. Bookings will not be required except for specific classes (spinning and Pilates courses). Check out the timetable for the gym or pool as different sessions may be operating but you will not need to arrive at specific times and general (non-lane) swimming will be available. We will also maintain two wider lanes at all times for people who prefer to do lengths. Timetables are being constantly updated and will be available on Facebook, the website and at the pool. Classes which are available online will continue at present.
4. Updated membership arrangements
We are no longer using our app for booking and payments and we are reverting to our former arrangements for memberships, all of which can be purchased at reception. Current direct debits will remain in place and you can collect a new card when you attend the pool. Monthly memberships will be available with peak adult membership costing £37, peak student and over 60s £27, swim only £31, gym only £22.99 and online classes only £20. Members get 10% off massage. A 10 credit swim/ gym class pass to be used within 6 months will cost £40. Ring reception on 0191 281 2482 or email info@jesmondpool.online for more information
We are really looking forward to things being more back to normal and to welcoming more new and regular customers back to the building!

JESMOND POOL AND GYM
Welcome to Jesmond Pool and Gym, an award winning social enterprise operating as a charity since our reopening in 1992. We are dedicated to working to promote health and fitness in the community across all ages from children and students through to older adults and work with local GPs to facilitate access to our activities and classes.
In our 22m pool we offer lane and family swimming sessions, aqua fit classes, Masters sessions, pool parties, mermaid experiences and chill out sessions. Jesmond Aqua School offers private and group swimming lessons for children and adults. We deliver RLSS accredited lifeguard courses on a regular basis.
In addition to the pool, we have 2 gyms ‘The Basement Gym’ and ‘The Poolside Gym’. The Basement gym houses a variety of different equipment from a range of cardiovascular equipment and weight stack machines to free weight bars and dumbbells.
The Poolside Gym was refurbished in 2019 with all new hi-tech equipment including cardiovascular equipment , weight stack machines and even a sledge. Our in house personal trainer can provide guided sessions in the gyms and our expert in exercise for older adults runs dedicated sessions for the over 50s.


Jala Therapies, hosted in the pool building, provides a range of massage and relaxation treatments.

WHAT OUR MEMBERS SAY
I also know that some of my fellow swimmers are coming from Durham/Middlesborough/Heydon Bridge because their council (or other) run pools are not open. Like Jesmond Library, Jesmond Pool & Gym is very much at the leading edge – we are lucky to have it!”
