Splash tots (formerly Parent & Toddler)
Suitable from birth, this relaxed session (held on Tuesdays, plus a couple of other weekdays) aims to get children feeling comfortable in the water with their parents in a safe, play-based environment. The small pool at Carlton Forum is lovely and warm, you can pretend you’re at a spa (except you’re getting splashed by your toddler)!
This activity does cost £5.50 per person, however it’s great value for swimming (and even cheaper with a Gedling Leisure Card).

Carlton Forum Leisure Centre 12-1.15pm
