East Sussex Pool Reopening This May

After a long hiatus, the local swimming pool is set to reopen in May, thanks to a new lease agreement transferring operations from East Sussex County Council to Lewes District Council. This beloved facility, managed by Wave Active, is ready to dive back into action, bringing joy to the community once more.

The pool, which has been out of use since September 2020 due to equipment failure, is now within touching distance of reopening. Thanks to a generous £100,000 funding programme from Lewes District Council and East Sussex County Council, essential machinery replacements are underway, ensuring the pool is ready for its grand reopening.

Councillor Johnny Denis, Cabinet Member for Tourism and Leisure at Lewes District Council, expressed his delight, acknowledging the patience and support of Ringmer residents throughout the process. He emphasised the importance of this facility for the community, highlighting the collaborative efforts that have made its revival possible.

Wave Active's CEO, Duncan Kerr, is equally enthusiastic, recognising the pool's potential to thrive as a community hub. With plans to welcome as many local residents as possible, the team at Wave Active is eager to breathe new life into this cherished venue.

As the reopening date approaches, the community is encouraged to dive in and make the most of this fantastic facility. Whether you're a seasoned swimmer or just looking for a fun way to stay active, the Ringmer swimming pool is set to become a vibrant part of local life once again.

For those considering a move to the area, Ringmer's thriving community amenities, like the swimming pool, make it an attractive place to call home. If you're interested in exploring property options, feel free to reach out to us at Burnett's for expert guidance.
