Bramley Baths is buzzing at the moment. Here’s our photo gallery – featuring images by the fantastic Lizzie Coombes and Courtney Harrison – featuring some of the splashtacular activities which take place at the community-owned Edwardian baths.
Our main photo (above) features one of the new activities set up at the Baths this year – aqua zumba,
following in the footsteps of the hugely popular zumba classes. It’s led by Jennie Ashton, a West Leeds treasure who motivates everyone she meets.
Courtney – the Ops Manager – used theatre gels to turn the pool into a rainbow spectacular – marking Gay Pride 2015.

Now they offer them to kids too! Photo Lizzie CoombesCelebrating the start of Bramley Baths’ 110th year in October 2014 with an Underwater Disco. Lx and Boe at the decks.

It’s open daily for anyone to use while the baths are open, and all the fruit and veg is free to pick – help yourselves! Photo Lizzie Coombes
