Supported swim
Our leisure centres offer a range of facilities for people who need extra support when coming to the swimming pool.
Changing places
Our changing places offer toilet and washing facilities with equipment such as a hoist, adult sized changing bench and space for carers. These are located in our town centres and are open for anyone to use.
Changing places are available at Freeman's Quay Leisure Centre, The Louisa Centre, Spennymoor Leisure Centre and Newton Aycliffe Leisure Centre.
Splashability
Splashability sessions are available at Spennymoor pool for anyone with a special education or disability need, and their carers and family.
Pool hoist
All of our swimming pools have a hoist and staff will be on hand to assist you into the water. Spennymoor Leisure Centre has a subversive wheelchair to allow you access straight into the water from the shallow waters into your preferred depth. All of our facilities have accessible changing rooms or cubicles.
Carers
If you require a carer during your visit, they can swim for free.
Staff assistance
Our staff are always on hand to assist you with any additional requirements or support on your visit. You are welcome to contact the leisure centre beforehand to discuss your needs and so that we can ensure equipment is set up in advance.
