A huge thank you to Faversham Rotary Club’s Community Chest for their incredible support! 🌟 Thanks to their funding, our Aquacise participants now have new aqua belts to use during their sessions. These belts are a fantastic addition, helping with balance, buoyancy, and building strength in the water. 🏊♀️💪 It’s wonderful to see the positive impact this has already had on our classes, making them more accessible and enjoyable for everyone. 💙 We’re so grateful for the support of local organisations like Faversham Rotary Club that help us continue providing opportunities for our community to stay active and healthy! 🙌

We’re always looking for new ways to bring something special to Faversham Pools, and one idea we’re really excited about is exploring floating sound baths. 🎶✨ Imagine the calming combination of gentle water therapy and soothing sound healing – perfect for relaxing the mind and easing stress 🧘♀️💆♂️. We’re in the early stages of planning and would love to hear from local sound healers or wellness professionals who could help us turn this into a reality. 🙌 If you or someone you know runs sound baths or offers similar services, we’d love to hear from you!

IMPORTANT UPDATE! 🚧 From 11th November, Faversham Pools will be temporarily closed for essential maintenance, as we work with Swale Borough Council to make important repairs to the pool columns. While we understand it’s not ideal, we’re working hard to make sure everything’s in tip-top shape for when we reopen! As a thank you for your patience, all memberships will automatically be extended by two weeks. Unfortunately, the outdoor pool will also be closed during this time for site-wide repairs, but we’ll be back soon, refreshed and ready for you! Thank you for your support and understanding! 🏊♂️ #favershampools #faversham #kent #updates #closure
