Bridgwater Forward tried many ways to prevent the closure of our well loved Splash: petition, occupation, meetings. Help us now by using the sample letter here to get your message across to our Council that we are not happy with the building of yet another supermarket.
We are being asked to unite as a community in order to get what we think is best for our area. By sending the letter to Peter Smith for forwarding to SDC you will be helping to show how many people want a pool and leisure centre in the town, and not another supermarket.
What we need in Bridgwater is somewhere to go for leisure and to keep fit.
So many people miss Splash!

Splash
has now gone, but its replacement must be right for the people of
Bridgwater.
Chilton
Trinity School has now been reprieved so the swimming pool will be
back on the agenda. The site for our new pool is still in the wrong
place.
A
New Pool and Leisure Centre should be built on the Northgate site,
which many of you voted for when visiting the consultation in the
Town Hall
As well as serving the
needs of local people, this will
encourage tourism to the town and provide leisure facilities to
encourage new businesses to come and stay in Bridgwater.
THIS
IS WHY
BRIDGWATER
FORWARD
CONTINUES
TO ARGUE FOR
A TOWN
CENTRE POOL
Our new pool should be
part of a leisure centre to provide activities such as ten pin
bowling, indoor sport area for training purposes, built on the
Northgate site.
What can residents do
to make their voices heard?

Dear
Councillor McGinty
Replacement Public Swimming Pool for
Bridgwater
There is still much anger in the town regarding the
demolition of Splash. There is money ring-fenced for a new pool and I think it
should be in the town centre, on the Northgate site.
This site is accessible by all, whether on foot, cycle,
bus or car. It is our money that is being spent and this is what we, the people,
want.
Yours sincerely
(Your
name)
LET’S
SEE WHAT PEOPLE POWER CAN
DO!
Please
help us. We need thousands of letters
- this is your last chance. We lost the
Splash but it is not too late to get a new
town centre pool.
