Unless the ststem has changed in last year, you can only book in advance by phone if you're a member, otherwise you can go in person and buy your ticket in advance for a future session. If you turn up on spec, my experience was often that the sessions were full. Very frustrating to plan your day, esp feeding, and pack all the swimming faff only to find you can't go.

On the other hand, sometimes they would say it was full but if you waited til quarter past, you could go in because there were those who had booked but not shown up.

Useful - Thank you! I am a member of the sports centre in ED, run by Fusion like Peckham Pulse - don't suppose you know whether that qualifies you as being able to book in advance or if you specifically need a Pulse Fusion membership>


(the family leisure access card sounds like a good idea!)

It's not centre based. If yo call fusion head office to get your id and pin you can use the online booking for all centres

Gives you moeny off swimming as well. Shouldn't be necessary though, really, just to be able to get in to jelly babies!

As someone else has said you can book 6 days in advance over the phone (didn't realise you could also book online) if you have an Axess card. You can also book over the phone without membership but there is a minimum card payment charge of ?5. Not great if you're booking for 1 adult as it's ?4.40 but you could book and pay for you and a friend? I booked today for Tuesday afternoon for me (Axess family membership) and 2 friends who are non-members.


In terms of just turning up, it has been fully booked in advance the last few Sundays and was pretty full before the queue formed last Tuesday afternoon.

    • Alas, poor Toadflax!  And gentle Alkanet.
    • Generally wild flowers which are indigenous to the UK are more likely to be supporting more wild life than introduced species, more commonly found in gardens, simply because wild life hasn't had time to adapt to it. Although of course many introductions which flower will be supporting pollinators more generally. (This would also be true of native as opposed to introduced tree and scrub species). And I suspect plants which are flowering over public space, even if rooted on private private, are being removed to stop them setting seed in public space. [Although many might see that as a good thing if the plants have merits of their own).
    • Good question. I think the benefit of some wild flowers is that they appear earlier in the spring and provide nectar for insects coming out of hibernation. Also, natives have evolved with the insects, some of which can only survive with certain native plants. For example, some species of  caterpillars need a specific native plant for their food. Having said that, I've seen lots of pollinators having a field day on some non native flowers. My bees love my verbena bonariensis for example.
    • Genuine question- are wild flowers/weeds better for wildlife than cultivated flowers? My cultivated flowers and their seeds attract birds, bees and all kinds of insects, maybe more so than wild flowers.
