5-30 Challenge...Can you swim for 30 minutes 5 times a week?

Did you know...

It is a well-established fact that regular physical activity reduces the risk of a range of conditions including heart disease, stroke, hypertension, and type 2 diabetes. Six out of ten men and seven out of ten women are just not active enough to benefit their health, doing less than the recommended 30 minutes of exercise five days a week.

To help you keep fit an active, Oaklands Pool are offering a fantastic promotion that rewards regular swimming with some amazing discounts. For every 3rd time you come swimming in a week we will give 25% off, your 4th visit will give you 50% and the 5th swim of the week you will receive FREE from us. Simply sign up for the scheme and bring your card with you every time you come and we will sign at reception and keep track of your record. If you are on one of our monthly swim tickets we will give you an extra FREE day for every 4th and 5th swim you complete in a week and tag it onto the end of your monthly ticket.

Are you up for the challenge? To find out more just contact reception on 023 8074 1414.
