New research from Swim England has shown the huge Value Of Swimming to the nation.

New research from Swim England has shown the huge Value Of Swimming to the nation at more than £2.4billion each year.

💧 But we know our pools have the potential to do so much more. That’s why we’re saying - don’t put a cap on swimming.

The social value is revealed in Swim England’s latest Value of Swimming report, which outlines how water-based activity continues to make a significant contribution to the physical and mental wellbeing of the nation.

To coincide with the launch of the report, Swim England is launching its ‘Don’t Put a Cap on Swimming’ campaign, calling on the Government to ensure the country has a network of sustainable pools to support all the activities and sports that rely on them, as well as increasing access to outdoor swimming opportunities.

Financial pressures on local councils, increased costs and ageing pools mean many facilities face an uncertain future.

If you're lucky enough to have a covered or indoor pool for Winter use, do take the time to maintain paintwork in and around the pool and pool room areas. Now is still an excellent time to put right and paint pools, their surrounds and the plant room. SEE OUR POOL PAINTS HERE...
