This venue is having a major facelift to the tune of more than £13 million at the moment, but it will definitely be worth it as the centre is earmarked to host the 2015 IPC Swimming World Championships.
A new extension is being built at present to accommodate the event, and it is now believed the extension will not be knocked down once the event is over. Instead it will remain for other people to use and enjoy.
In fact this is excellent news for the pool as it will also play host to the Commonwealth Games in 2014. The renovations currently taking place will be ready in plenty of time for the Games, so the swimming centre will be more than capable of hosting these two extremely important events in the swimming calendar.
And who knows, they may also inspire more young people to get involved in swimming and to use the pool once the events are over.
In the meantime Swimex have helped many hundreds of school children get more swimming experience by providing enclosures for open air school pools across the UK. These enclosures can have built in changing rooms and rubber safety flooring to ensure safe usage for children.
