Please find information and photos of the Mount Kelly Swim Centre detailing our accessible facilities.
We do not charge for carers accompanying swimmers with disabilities or special needs when attending public sessions.
Pool Pod
Our new Pool Pod platform lift enables you to get into and out of the water with ease. You have the option of also using the submersible wheelchair.
This state of the art access system is useful for a wide range of mobility impairments – it is designed to provide access for anyone who finds it hard to get into and out of the swimming pool.
The user independently controls pool access without the need for pool attendant’s intervention.
Steps
The main steps into the pool have two sturdy handrails and wide flat steps for easy entry to the water.
Parking
Dedicated Disabled parking bays
Ramp
Access to the Swim Centre is via a ramp with three flat areas to stop/rest.

We also have a disabled toilet in the reception area.
Changing Room
