Swimming Membership

 

Summer Membership

Membership is currently full. We have 3750 full and weekday members who renew their membership each year and can attend from the May to September. Any memberships that are not renewed are offered to those on the waiting list.

Waiting list

We have a waiting list of approximately 2000. If you are on the waiting list, we offer you community access. This is a pay as you go (per swim) scheme which allows limited access during quieter times whilst you wait for a membership place.

Waiting List update for 2024

Unfortunately, we are not able to open the waiting list this year. Spaces are limited and we open to community access during quieter times. It would not be practical or fair to take on any more swimmers as we would not be able to offer sufficient swimming opportunities to our current members and community access users. We are sorry about this.

Please check back in with us in April 2025.

Winter Membership

Members and community access are able to apply for winter swimming in October each year providing they have already completed a swim test.

Guests

Adult members (18 and over) can bring a maximum of two guests to the Lake. Junior guests must demonstrate the ability to swim 50 metres by taking a swimming test at the Lake at their first visit each season.

The lake is only suitable for competent swimmers and passing a 50-metre swimming test is an essential requirement for membership.
