Campaign for Broomhill Pool enters its ninth year

The campaign to try and save Broomhill Pool in Ipswich moves into its ninth year this September, with no signs that Ipswich Borough Council are going to come to a swift decision on the future of the lido. A year ago they advertised for Expressions of Interest in the pool site and a top class operator did come forward and put in a bid. However, the Council appear unwilling to move on to the assessment and conclusion stage of this process and therefore the lido remains simply "mothballed".

The Heritage Open Days are coming up this weekend and provide a chance for supporters to view the pool site and get the latest updates on this long-fought campaign.

It's just a tragedy that the Council won't run the pool themselves or allow anyone else to, at the moment.


What was the point of advertising for Expressions of Interest if they were not going to progress to the next stage?
