As a focal point of the Jesmond Community, Jesmond Pool has an unusual history. Originally opened in 1938, the pool was closed by the Council in 1991. Within a year a registered charity and limited company, called Jesmond Swimming Project, was formed to lease the building from the Council, employ staff, and reopen the pool as a public facility. Ever since, the organisation has gone from strength to strength, seeing various renovations including the addition of an Activity Room and Fitness Suite. POOL, SAUNA AND STEAM ROOM
You will find Jesmond Pool offers more public swimming times than any other in the area, and features lane swimming, consistent early morning and late evening swimming, 29 degrees C water temperature, full access for people with disabilities, magnificent glass fronted poolside sauna and steam room that overlook the pool hall. Within the pool we offer numerous private and group swimming lessons as well as crash courses for both adults and children from age 3+. FITNESS SUITE
Our fitness suite is a purpose built, air conditioned room, containing over 30 exercise stations. Following the recent renewal of all equipment the Fitness Suite now offers personal TV screens on all CV equipment, more treadmills and cross trainers, a new AMT (adaptive motion trainer), and more specific resistance provision. From self motivated sessions in the gym to instructor lead classes, we're sure you'll find something to suit. ACTIVITY ROOM
This room is used for many activities, including: Aerobics, dance, yoga, pilates, table tennis, meetings, circuits, body toning, holistic treatments, spinning, boxercise, martial arts, tai chi and many others. The room has a sprung floor, is air conditioned and has a roomy comfortable feel about it whether being used for a childrenโs party with a bouncy castle and soft play, or hosting an action packed fitness class.
