Outdoor pools across Oxfordshire are reporting peak visitors.

This is the scene now at Riverside Pools in Wallingford which is fully booked today.

A spokesperson for Better Leisure said the rest of the week is around 50 per cent booked already.

Demand is so great on Friday, Saturday and Sunday opening hours will be extended by an additional hour to increase capacity.

"We expect at least 1,200 people through the doors for the pool and many more to our splash pad," she said.

Abbey Meadows Outdoor Pool in Abingdon is also seeing huge numbers of visitors.

It is at capacity and fully booked today with 780 visitors in total.

Tomorrow there are 20 spaces left.

It currently has spaces available for the weekend.
