Hi all,
Akrotiri Swimming Pool
Due to situations beyond our control we have been unable to run the usual lifeguard courses this year which I am sure you can understand.
This has left us desperately short of staff and at present to run the pool safely and fully manned, we are unable to run any of the advertised public swims. This being Tuesday 1430-1600 and Sundays 1000-1300.Due to this the decision has been taken to cancel these sessions until the next course is completed.
It is only the Public Swims that require several staff members on site that is effected.
ALL OTHER SESSIONS ARE AS NORMAL.
We have not taken this decision lightly but your safety is our priority.
As funding has now been made available for equipment needed, the next Lifeguard course is now planned for October half term.
With the recruiting of new staff these sessions will return plus the Super Slide sessions on a Sunday.
If you would like to become an RLSS UK Qualified Lifeguard (NPLQ) please email the swimming pool on [email protected] for more information and an application form. This is an internationally recognised qualification that can be taken on future postings.
Thank you all for your continued support.
Kind regards to all
