Swimming Pool Fundraising

After 11 years of dedicated fundraising by Bridport Action Committee for an Indoor Pool (BACit), the swimming pool at Bridport Leisure Centre was finally opened in August 1994. That was nearly 30 years ago, and with this milestone fast approaching the pool is in need of essential maintenance.

Will Thrower the Centre Manager explains: “The pool is in constant use and is now in desperate need of re-grouting, this is a huge undertaking and a specialist task which will cost tens of thousands of pounds. We have decided to ask our valued members and residents of the town to join together to support its local community centre and help to keep the pool open.”
