Ashington Town Council is once again funding free swimming sessions at Ashington Leisure Centre throughout the summer holidays, giving local families a fun, safe and cost-free way to enjoy the school break.
The popular free swim initiative returns from Wednesday 22 July to Saturday 29 August 2026, with two sessions running every week:
Every Wednesday, 1:00pm to 2:00pm Every Saturday, 2:30pm to 3:30pm
There is no need to book – simply turn up at Ashington Leisure Centre to claim a free swim. Eighty slots are available at each session, allocated on a first come, first served basis, so swimmers are encouraged to arrive in good time.
The General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR") took effect in the UK from 25 May 2018. It replaced the existing law on data protection (the Data Protection Act 1988) and gives individuals more rights and protection regarding how their personal data is used by councils. Local Council's must comply with its requirements, just like any other organisation.
GDPR applies to all local councils as public authorities.
