No matter how much we love swimming outdoors, pools hold a special place in our hearts. The smell of chlorine, the plaster floating in the deep end, memories of Mars Bars from the vending machine after swimming club... Pools are where we learnt to swim, had birthday parties when we were kids, and now take our own kids to learn to swim and let off some steam. Swimming pools are essential not only to our own swimming lives but to the health and wellbeing of our local communities. With so many of our pools under threat, in the new Back To Pool issue of Outdoor Swimmer magazine we celebrate swimming pools and urge you to support your local pool. Plus, every issue includes a FREE pull-out Training Guide to inspire your winter training plan and encourage you to get back in the pool!
