We are pleased to see that the review of the Bradford Council Sports and Leisure Services, including Ilkley Pool and Lido, has been delayed until later in the year. Although we don’t yet know the timetable for the findings, we know that the review will be gathering more information and looking at options for the service over the coming months.
We have been working with Bradford Council, our local and regional elected representatives, and an advisory board of successful pools and lidos from across the country to develop options for Ilkley Pool and Lido. We hope that this, alongside the incredible enthusiasm and support from you, the community of Pool and Lido users, has influenced the timetable and kept the door open.
A huge thanks to everyone who has been working so hard on securing the future of Ilkley Pool and Lido over the last few months. We will continue to contribute the very best ideas, and bring the assets of our resourceful community to the review as it develops.
This delay gives us hope, so let’s keep swimming!
