No swimming in SE22 (and beyond)

Paying you're membership, but the majority of costs have been paid through the government furlough scheme.

You should seek a refund for a service not provided. At the very least a discount for not providing the service should be provided.

Council response this morning:

"I have passed your emails on to our leisure department. They are finalising next steps with EA to gain some clarity before responding to emails."

I've just heard Dulwich Leisure centre is opening on Saturday for everything except pools, pool opening to follow "shortly after". Official communication to follow shortly apparently.

I have received a response from the council this morning:

Camberwell Leisure Centre, Dulwich Leisure Centre, The Castle Centre, Peckham Pulse Leisure Centre, Seven Islands Leisure Centre, Surrey Docks Fitness and Watersports Centre, Geraldine Mary Harmsworth Sports Facility and Southwark Athletics Centre, which are managed by sports and leisure operator Everyone Active on behalf of Southwark Council, will reopen their doors on Saturday 1 August.

The leisure centres will be opened using a phased approach to further ensure the safety of customers. The swimming pool facilities at these centres will be reopening for lane swimming and clubs from Thursday 20 August, with a lane booking system in place. The Everyone Active Learn to Swim Programme will also commence from Saturday 22 August. All customers will be communicated to directly regarding the details for reopening.
