Dulwich Leisure Centre, seriously - how do you book a swim?!

[Coco_123]

I haven't been swimming at Dulwich Leisure for years, and since they reopened including a new website, it seems impossible to book a swim.

Has anyone cracked it? I'm not a gym member there, so you'd think their swim timetable was fully viewable, but it isn't. You sort of have to make a guess about exactly which day, time and type of swim, (e.g forcing you to decide whether to click on medium lane 45 or slow lane 60 - madness) before you've even found out if there's any slots generally? And then if you do see a S'pace Available', by the time you click forward, it then always says 'Fully Booked'.

No joke, I've been trying and failing for weeks. If you email Southwark Leisure they don't reply. If you call Dulwich Leisure Centre there's no human to answer the phone (and it says voicemail is full). What the --? Do Southwark want us to be healthy or not? Seems madness to me that we live on Crystal Palace Road yet we have to go to Forest Hill Pools to swim.

If anyone's cracked it please do shout

good luck booking forest Hill, I've been trying to get in a fitness class there (I'm a member) for two weeks and they're all fully booked..I go on the waitlist by the time I've recieved an email to tell me a slot has become available its gone and sessions are all fully booked.

really really depressing.

Do they still operate a waitlist for classes? I thought the policy changed and you now have to check repeatedly to see if a space becomes available - not sure how this is an improvement btw!
