This National Carers Week, the team is proud to recognise and celebrate the incredible, tireless contribution of carers across our local community.
Carers spend their lives putting others first. Caring for a client, family member, or loved one is immensely rewarding, but it can also be physically and mentally demanding, yet carers routinely place the needs of others above their own.
To say a genuine, heartfelt thank you, the team at Newcastle Pools wants to give back to these unsung heroes by offering FREE aquatic facility access to all carers throughout the week, specifically for visits outside of the regular times they accompany a client or family member.
Whether you want to lap swim, unwind in the pool, or simply take some well-deserved time out to recharge, our doors are open for you.
