THE NEW swimming pools at Abbey Fields in Kenilworth are already making a splash.
An opening ceremony took place on Wednesday July 8 with chairman of Warwick District Council Coun Pam Redford cutting the ribbon.
The pools then officially welcomed the public on Saturday (July 11) with a special weekend of water-related activities for all the family to enjoy.
This included inflatables, family swims, lane swimming and Hydrohex, a new virtual aqua group exercise class.
The brand-new facilities comprising two indoor pools are the result of a multi-million pound investment by the council to provide additional year-round pool-space for the people of Kenilworth and the wider district.
As well as the main training pool, the additional family pool with its movable floor will facilitate a wide variety of water-based sessions as well as enhanced opportunities for the disabled to access the water using the latest ‘pool-pod’ lift technology.
Visitors to the Abbey Fields park will also have full access to the centre’s conservatory style cafe.
