Shropshire Council's Cabinet is considering a bid for £980,000 from the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) funds to complete the interior of the new swimming and fitness centre in Whitchurch. The funds will be used to fit out the gym, changing areas, and a café.

Shropshire Council ’s Cabinet is being asked to approve a bid for £980,000 from the Community Infrastructure Levy funds to fit out the new swimming and fitness centre in Whitchurch .Project managers have requested the funds to fit out the gym and the interior of the £14m development, including changing areas and a café.

“We have committed to developing the new swimming and fitness centre, and people will already have seen the huge progress that has been made on site since the start of the year, including the demolition of the old swimming centre, MUGA play area and youth centre. Groundworks are already underway and we are looking forward to seeing rapid development.

Funded by Shropshire Council, the new centre will offer a six-lane 25m pool, a 41-station fitness suite, multi-function rooms and a café with 20 covers. Shropshire Council developed the project after finding that a new centre would be the most viable and cost effective way to replace the previous facility, which had not been able to open since March 2020 when defects were identified in the pool’s structure.
