Here's hoping the weather stays the same!!
Part 1 of 2: As we rapidly approach the middle of May and we start looking at our schedules and staffing requirements, we wondered if anyone would be interested in helping us run some sessions as it appears we may have some “pinch points”?
Anyone who is a member of the Co-op are able to fundraise for our pool by choosing us as their charity here membership.coop.co.uk/causes…
We are refurbishing and improving the pool ready for reopening so if you can help it would be much appreciated 🙂
1/4 Just an update from us after yesterday’s announcement
We continue to aim to open this year but are still in a mess at the pool as while we have had the opportunity and some resources sadly Covid hit us with manpower issues etc so we are not as far forward as we wanted to be
3/4 If you are or you know someone in the kitchen supply trade that may be happy to donate some old stock to assist us please DM us. It needs to be in good condition (seconds are perfectly fine) but we cannot use something thats worse than what we’ve just removed.
From our chairperson on our Facebook page:
Odd question but does anyone have a floor grinder at all that the Pool can borrow for a day or so to take up some floor paint before we lay new flooring? I know we can hire one for about £150 but thought I’d ask locally just in case.
A massive thank you to the Carol singers organised by Bev Carter. You raised £46.90! Such a simple fund raiser but collecting almost £50 is amazing! Hopefully you brought some cheer to the houses you sang at in these “interesting times” too. Thank you on behalf of all of us
We have a big thank you to give to a local builders merchants who have donated some much needed building materials to us for our ongoing refurb. It never ceases to amaze me how helpful, resourceful and generous our local community is 😍
THANK YOU BUILD-BASE OF SLEAFORD!!
A massive thank you to Tom Middleton and his company who have made a donation of £73 to us from pre-Xmas sales of wood chip etc.
Thank you Tom this will help towards our partition walls 😀

After nearly three years away we are back on board the Twitter bus but with the sad news that due to Covid-19 we will not be opening at all for the 2020 season.
We will still be fundraising hard to ensure the future of the pool for coming years. Thank you localgiving.org/charity/bill…
