FREE aquacise taster sessions will be held in Newton Aycliffe.

The sessions, at the hydrotherapy pool at the Pioneering Care Centre on Carers Way, use the resistance of water to work all of the muscles in the body.

Aquacise can be undertaken by anyone regardless of age or ability and can also help alleviate pain and improve cardiovascular endurance.

The free classes take place from 7.45pm and 8.45pm on Wednesday, May 7, 14 and 21.

More pool times are available from Monday to Saturday, including ladies-only and parents and toddler sessions.

Booking is essential, as places are limited to six per session.
