Jake at Ashburton Swimming Pool in Newton Abbot is calling on all sports enthusiasts and community supporters! This pool has been a cornerstone for swimmers of all ages, offering everything from general swim sessions to specialised classes like women-only and Aquafit. They even have swimming lessons for kids and lane swimming for those who want a more rigorous workout.
But here's the urgent bit – the pool needs major structural repairs and is at risk of closing. To reopen in 2024, they’ve launched the 20 Pool Heroes Campaign. Jake is looking for 20 Heroes – individuals, families, businesses, you name it – to pitch in £5,000 each. In return, you'll get your name on the “wall of heroes” for the next decade.
The facility can also be hired for private events, so whether it's a birthday party or a team-building event, they’ve got you covered. Planning a visit? Just head over to their website for all the info and to sign up for their newsletter.
Jake can't stress enough how grateful Ashburton Swimming Pool is for the community’s support. If you want to contribute and keep this essential resource going, just visit their site for details on how to get involved. You can reach out via email, phone, or social media. Let's come together and make sure this pool continues to be a vibrant part of our community!
