Fantastic community run by Cat & Wales. I have been coming twice a week since June 2021. I always feel welcome whether on my own or with friends. Im more of a wellness than a fitness swimmer but this is a perfect place for both. Great facilities, very safe and everyone always welcome. New sauna is an absolute treat for the winter! Would give ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ if I could!

If you want to open water swim, get yourself down to colwick park with wholehealth! Cat and Wales will look after you, you’ll meet wonderful people and have a drink and cake with wired! What a wonderful wat to spend a morning!

Very welcoming, beautiful lake, just outside of Nottingham. In Colwick Park so lots of walks for non swimmers, and also lifeguarded for safety. There is a big 650m (?) loop for confident swimmers, and a smaller 175m (?) loop as well. Although you don’t have to swim loops, you can keep near the pontoon. Open all year round, which is great 🧜🏽‍♀️

I discovered this awesome club about 3 years ago. I was grieving the loss of my wife and brother who had both died recently. I didn't know what to do with myself so I spontaneously joined up. I was made to feel very welcome and really enjoyed it. I particularly enjoyed the mindfulness sessions and have since spent many hours floating around taking photos. The club is well run with a real emphasis on staying safe. I feel safe to laugh, shout, be quiet or cry there. There is a real community feel and absolutely no judgement whatever your swimming ability or body shape. A friend recently told me that since spending time at the lake I appear happier, more relaxed and positive. The club has evolved now offering full moon swims and saunas and there is the fantastic Wired on Wheels offering great coffee and snacks post dip.

Just an amazing experience, enjoying the peace and tranquility of the lake. Floating in the sunshine and taking some time for myself. An amazing whole health team and really friendly community. Could not recommend highly enough😍

I joined WholeHealth last summer by myself. The entire team made me feel so welcome and safe in the lake. The community feel is amazing. Everyone is so kind and caring. Cat and Wales are so encouraging and supportive , never thought I’d swim in an ice lake!!

This is my happy place! If you are on the fence about trying open water swimming, do it here and you will never regret it. Coach Cat, Coach Wales (and team) are the best ever and I cannot thank them enough for all the great times we have at every visit! This place is so welcoming, incredibly supportive and totally inclusive 🩷🫶💙

The joy of swimming at the lake with the Whole Health swimming community is hard to sum up. Incredible fun, amazing adventures, new friendships, impeccable safety & support, being immersed in nature, splashing in the water under a full moon or a rising sun, breaking the ice before you get it or basking in the lake on a hot summers day. And laughter. So much laughter. I haven't even started on the physical and mental health benefits. Get yourself down the the lake and change your life for the better 💙
