If you have arthritis you could join the disabled swimming club. It used to be free and there was transport provided, but i dont know if this is still so.

I think both pools would be suitable depending on which has the best hours for you and which is easier for you to get to.
The pools gets a lot of use from swim clubs, schools etc it would be a good idea to call them to find out when you can swim and what else is available such as the disabled swimming club, that Fran suggested, or even aqua-aerobics.
A Highlife card will get you into both for the same monthly charge.
