Blue green algae is commonly found in water across the UK and is only a problem if it multiplies, known as a 'bloom'. This can happen as a result of hot, sunny weather and still conditions. We regularly test the quality of the water in all of our reservoirs over the summer to be sure it is safe for water sports.
Please do check for updates before you make the trip to our water facilities.
If you are concerned about it at home, you can buy test kits online for algae for your ponds and swimming pools.
