A grant of up to £115k has been proposed to help with rising energy costs at a town swimming pool at risk of closing down.
In October the trustees of Tenbury Swimming Pool, in Tenbury Wells near the South Shropshire border, warned itThe grant proposal, along with suggestions for additional capital works, will be put forward to executive committee at Malvern Hills District Council on Tuesday, January 24.
In 2020, TCP completed a £450,000 refurbishment and extension project supported by the council with a Section 106 grant of £200,000, a Sport England grant of £50,000, and £200,000 from other multiple sources. To reduce the impact of rising costs, Freedom Leisure has introduced a series of operational measures at Tenbury Swimming Pool including new pool covers, reducing water and air temperatures, and turning off equipment during off peak times.
Last October, the Executive Committee agreed to accept a reduction in the council’s management fee from Freedom Leisure for 2022/23 to help keep Malvern Splash, Sport Dyson Perrins, and Sport Martley leisure centres running amidst rising energy costs.
