🏊 Important Notice for This Evening 🏊

A quick reminder that Brockwell Swimmers are hosting an event at the lido this evening.

As a one-off, the pool will close at 20:00 today to allow for the event to take place safely.

If you’re planning an evening swim, please make sure you arrive in plenty of time before the earlier closure.

Thank you for your understanding, and we hope everyone attending the Brockwell Swimmers event has a fantastic evening!

Another summer’s day at Brockwell Lido! 🌊☀️

We’re looking forward to welcoming you poolside today. A quick reminder that our midday closure period is from 12:15–13:00.

During this time, the pool and poolside will be cleared, and all customers are kindly asked to leave the area before we reopen for the afternoon session at 13:00. Thank you for helping us make this changeover as smooth as possible.

We’d also like to say a huge thank you to everyone who visited yesterday for your patience and understanding. Our team responded to a number of serious incidents throughout the day which understandably caused delays and disruption to normal operations.

We are incredibly proud of our lifeguards and wider team, who remained calm, professional and responded exactly as they are trained to do. We’d also like to thank our customers for your cooperation, patience and kindness while these incidents were managed.

As always, if you visit us today, please follow the instructions of our lifeguards and staff. They’re there to keep everyone safe and ensure the lido remains an enjoyable place for all.

Thank you, and we’ll see you poolside. 💙🏊

☀️ Relax in comfort at Brockwell Lido! 🌊🪑

Make the most of your visit by hiring one of our sun loungers for just £5 per session.

Available to members and non-members, it’s the perfect way to relax between swims, soak up the sunshine, or simply enjoy a day at the lido.

How it works:
🪑 Hire your lounger at Reception.
🎟️ You’ll receive a wristband as proof of purchase.
🏊 Your lounger is valid for your booked swim session only.

To help everyone enjoy them, we ask that all customers:
• Keep loungers within the designated lounger area.
• Keep them away from the pool edge.
• Treat them with care and respect.
• Return them to the designated storage area at the end of your session.

Our loungers are available on a first come, first served basis and cannot be reserved, so if you’re planning a sunny day at the lido, be sure to grab one while they’re available!

We look forward to seeing you poolside. ☀️

📢 1 week in, an update from us 💙

⚠️ It’s a long one, but there’s lots of useful information, so please take a moment to read!

Firstly, thank you🙏 Our first week operating as Active Lambeth has been incredibly busy, and we’d like to thank everyone for their patience, kindness and understanding while we’ve been getting to grips with brand-new systems and processes.

Here are a few key pieces of information:

🏊 Swimming Sessions
Our swimming schedule remains the same, including the 12:15-13:00 closure period where the pool and poolside must be cleared to allow our team to prepare the site for the next session.

📱 Swimming Bookings
General swimming and lane swimming can be booked:
• 7 days in advance for Active Lambeth members.
• 5 days in advance for non-members.

🎟️ Concessionary Tickets
Concession discounts are available, however they can currently only be purchased as walk-in tickets. We’re working on bringing concessionary online bookings to the new system as soon as possible.

🤝 Wellhub, ClassPass & Hussle Users
If you’re visiting via Wellhub, ClassPass or Hussle, you’ll need an Active Lambeth account before you arrive. Please also note that entry via these platforms is subject to walk-in capacity, as all admissions must be managed within our live headcount.

⏳ Queues & Waiting Times
We’re doing everything we can to keep queues moving while we learn our new systems. Please bear with our team—they’re working incredibly hard, and every day we’re becoming quicker and more efficient.

🏋️ Gym Refurbishment
The refurbishment is progressing well! While we don’t yet have a confirmed reopening date, we’ll share updates as soon as we do. In the meantime, members can continue to use any other Active Lambeth fitness facility as part of their membership.

💪 Group Exercise Classes
We’re pleased to confirm that our group exercise programme will return this Saturday. Classes will run from Studios 1 and 2, with access via poolside through Studio 3 while refurbishment works continue. Please allow a little extra time when arriving for your class.

Your continued support means a huge amount to all of us, and we’re excited for what’s still to come.

🐜🌊 A quick note on flying ant season… 🌊🐜

As many of our regular swimmers will know, we’re approaching that time of year when flying ants decide to make a guest appearance across London.

As an outdoor pool surrounded by trees and parkland, it’s inevitable that we’ll see a few more insects around than our indoor pool counterparts.

Rest assured, our team is continuously netting the pool throughout the day and doing everything we can to keep the water clear and enjoyable for everyone.

The occasional flying ant may beat us to it, but that’s all part of the charm of outdoor swimming and a reminder that you’re swimming in the heart of Brockwell Park, not inside a leisure centre! 🌳🏊‍♀️

Thank you for your understanding, and please be kind to our team as they work hard to keep the pool looking its best during one of nature’s busiest weeks.

See you poolside (and hopefully not too many ants)! 💙🐜
