Charlotte and Rachael’s 1927 swim challenge

Aim: We love Wivey Pool for lane swimming, swimming lessons for the kids, family swimming and, most importantly, the sense of community!

We are hoping to build a Pool House (where the existing old sheds are) to get us Fit for the Future and Keep Wivey Swimming.  It will provide a warm area for our swimmers and spectators, a room for school children to learn vital lifesaving skills, a community space and a training area for our staff and lifeguards.  And, it is proposed to include an accessible toilet that will be available to everyone – YES EVERYONE – who uses the Rec. 

We are applying for grants for the majority of the build cost but to cover the shortfall we need to raise £60k in 6 months!  We are hoping our wonderful community will help. Whether you donate, support our other fundraising initiatives or help spread the word, you’ll be playing a part in securing WiveyPool’s future. By donating using the form below ensures 100% of your donation comes to the pool and you can select what you would like your money is spent on. Thank you.
