Sauna room update

Thank you for your continual patience while the sauna is refurbished. The delays in the completion of the works are very frustrating and we are in conversation with the supplier to rectify the outstanding issues. They are due to install a new door and frame along with the benches being re-aligned and secured. We anticipate the works will be completed this week (w/c 13/01/2025) and the sauna back in operation by the end of the week. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

Changing room etiquette

Please can all Members ensure that their children are supervised while in the changing room. We pride ourselves on providing a clean and safe environment for everyone to use, however, recently we have had a few situations where children have either damaged or misused the changing rooms which has caused additional work for the Housekeeping Team. The consumption of food is forbidden in the changing room – please purchase from and consume food in the Juice Bar.

Lane swimming update

Following recent feedback from Members the Health Club Committee have agreed to change the current guidelines to allow under 16s to participate in lane swimming from 1st February. For a Junior Member to be able to lane swim they will be either:

◊ Enrolled in the Club’s swim school and are at Stage 5 or above
◊ Or a club swimmer in an official swim club

If the Junior doesn’t meet the above criteria, then Ana, Peter or a member of their team will complete an assessment where the junior will be required to swim 100m in the stroke of their choice continuously to a good standard, and lane etiquette will be taught. These assessments will need to be booked in advance with Ana Leal, Family Activities Manager at ana.leal@roehamptonclub.co.uk

Juniors that meet the above criteria will be required to collect a yellow band from Health Club Reception which will indicate to the Lifeguard Team that they are suitable for lane swimming.

For more information please contact Stuart Reeks, Health Club Manager at stuart.reeks@roehamptonclub.co.uk

Family Accessible Changing Room – Indoor Pool

If you require extra space to change as a family, we have an additional changing room which is located next to the Steam Room in the indoor pool area.

To gain access to this changing room, Members need to exchange their membership card for a radar key and a locker key at Health Club Reception. Before you leave the Health Club, return the keys and your membership card will be given back to you.

We politely request that this changing area only be used by Members who require a dedicated area with their children. If you have any questions, please contact speak to a Member of the Health Club Team.

Pool contamination

In order to limit the number of pool closures, staff require Members’ help in reducing and eliminating this issue:

◊ All children aged under four years old must wear a swim nappy at all times
◊ Only allow your child to swim at least 90 minutes after eating
◊ If your child has had a diarrhoeal illness in the last 72 hours, please do not allow them to swim
◊ In the event of an incident please inform staff immediately as this may reduce the time of the pool being closed  

Roehampton Club reserves the right to charge £500 to cover the cost of disinfection of the pool water and disruption to Members following an incident.

Members must also complete an incident form with the Health Club Duty Manager to ensure preventative measures have been followed prior to the incident.

If these preventative measures have not been implemented a fee will be charged.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause, however this is a necessary action to prevent further pool closures. Please help us to keep your pool open.
