Mill House pools to reopen

Published Monday, 7th March 2022

We’re delighted to announce the swimming pools at Hartlepool’s Mill House Leisure Centre will reopen tomorrow – Tuesday 8th March.

It comes after Hartlepool Borough Council had to temporarily close the pools last week as a result of a Europe-wide shortage of chemicals compatible with the centre’s pool water dosing system.

A new sodium dosing system has now been installed, meaning the pools are ready to reopen tomorrow morning.

Gemma Ptak, Assistant Director, Preventative and Community Based Services, at Hartlepool Borough Council said: “We’re delighted the pools can reopen tomorrow and we’d like to thank everyone for their patience and understanding over the past week.

“I’d also like to place on record my thanks to the staff at Mill House who have worked tirelessly to ensure we can reopen the pools as soon as possible.”
