Swimming was back on the agenda at a popular gym today when both its pools reopened

The main and small pools at Energise in Cornlands Road, Acomb, were closed yesterday morning by an incident and all swimming lessons yesterday were cancelled.

 

But both pools opened at the normal time today, all timetabled sessions today will run as normal and swimming students will get their money back.

The gym and other facilities at Energise were not affected by the closure.

The Press understands that there was no risk to public health or safety during the incident, about which the leisure centre is not releasing details.

Paul Bickle, manager of Energise said: “This morning there was an incident which took place at Energise. As a result both the large and small pools will be closed all day today will be open as usual tomorrow from 8am.

"We would like to apologise to all our customers for any inconvenience caused and will ensure that all swimming lesson customers who were due to have a lesson this morning will be reimbursed in full.”
