Through our sustainability program & fundraising scheme we are pledging to ensure the lido remains operational for another 90 years.
Our next sustainability project will generate 93% of our current annual electricity usage.
With grants secured from Sport England, HM Government, the Lottery Fund and Cheltenham Borough Council we have raised £316,000 and our charity is pledging £250,000 but we need your support to complete the project by March 2025.
We will announce numerous ways to get involved as the season progresses.

We are committed to working with parents to create a safe environment for children.
All children under the age of 8 should always be accompanied by a guardian aged 16 years or over, this person may be responsible for up to two children. Guardians must maintain constant supervision particularly in the water and changing rooms. We advise that children under the age of 5 should be supervised on a one-to-one basis.
Parents have a specific responsibility for the safety of their own children, this cannot be abdicated to lifeguards. The role of the lifeguard is to maintain a safe and healthy environment for all swimmers.
We have four queues available;
We allow all those who have booked onto site first and then we will allow entry to others customers who have not booked onto site.
If we have hit site capacity, we will move to a 1-out-1-in scenario.
