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.

Jesmond Pool and Gym is a charity. All charities have a board of trustees, individuals who have independent control over, and responsibility for, a charity’s management and administration. Being a trustee offers opportunities to use your skills and experience effectively and get involved in the future of Jesmond Pool and gym, working together with staff. We are always looking for customers who might be interested in becoming trustees. You would be expected to attend monthly board meetings (usually on a Sunday evening), other occasional meetings, and read papers in preparation for meetings.
