Great news that the Government is investing £131,284 in Xcel swimming pool in Walton, giving more people the opportunity to swim. The investment will fund PV panels and new pool covers, relieving financial pressure by reducing running costs. The funding is part of this Conservative Government’s Swimming Pool Support Fund which has invested £80 million into 442 swimming pools across the country since last year.
Alongside the Swimming Pool Support Fund, the Government is investing over £300 million in grassroots sports facilities. This included a total of £7,731 investment for new goalposts at Molesey Juniors, Esher FC and Claygate Royals.
Under the new sports strategy, the Conservative Government is aiming to get 3.5 million more people active by 2030 to improve people’s health, both physically and mentally, to secure a brighter future for all.
