Fenham Pool is based in the West End of Newcastle upon Tyne. Since 1938 it had been an important community facility, catering for a wide range of groups of all ages and abilities. The Pool, operated by Newcastle City Council, had been under threat of closure for six years and was eventually was closed on 18th July 2003, despite vociferous opposition from residents.

·

·

Since then local people formed a committee and registered themselves as a company and charity with the sole aim of reopening the Pool. Commissioned surveys demonstrated a massive demand from the community as a whole and a number of partners are dedicated to the project. These include local schools, residents and health providers.

·

Fenham Pool reopened on 28th July 2005 as a Community Run Pool. The Pool achieved its 100,000 user in June 2007, also reaching an annual target of 60,000 users in 2007.

·

The pool won £80,000 from the Big Lottery through Tyne Tees ' The Peoples Millions' in 2007. This funding was used to dramatically improve the changing facilities at the swimming pool.

·

The Staff and Committee would like to say a BIG Thank You to all customers, supporters and Funders.

·

We provide access to our pool to all members of the community. We have full disabled access including an easy access changing room and poolside hoist and easy access steps.
