What is this place?

Tiller Leisure Centre is a public pool on the Isle of Dogs, run by Be Well (the Tower Hamlets ‘Better’/GLL leisure service). It holds a weekly Family SEN Swim on both Saturdays and Sundays, 12:15–13:15, for families with children up to 16 who have additional needs (maximum two children per adult; the session is not instructor-led). The centre has a poolside hoist for pool entry, a wheelchair-adapted building with a lift, and accessible parking. The venue has also confirmed an accessible changing room with a changing bed and hoist — visitors must bring their own compatible sling. This changing room is separate from the disabled toilet and the poolside hoist. The venue has not confirmed that the changing room is a registered Changing Places toilet, so Changing Places is shown as not confirmed. The 2026 session price isn't published — check when booking. Please check details before travelling.

“Not confirmed” means we couldn't verify that detail from the sources we checked — not that it's unavailable. Where a source confirms something is genuinely absent, we show it as a clear ✕. If a specific need matters for your visit, please contact the venue to check. Parent-reported experiences (added later) will always be shown separately from verified venue information.
