Background Information
The Sport and Leisure Committee of the Heathfield Partnership is currently working towards building an indoor swimming pool in Heathfield. In 2005 the Heathfield Area Pool Initiative (HAPI) carried out a survey and 5,000 people said they would like an indoor swimming pool in Heathfield. The subsequent feasibility study (please see summary below) carried out in 2006, which the Partnership raised funds for, endorsed this and identified the most suitable site for the swimming pool, as being Heathfield Community College's existing leisure facility. A business plan was produced in 2008. This committee are currently raising funds for design work for a planning application for the swimming pool and fitness centre project to be based at Heathfield Community College. The Partnership is still in need of further funding for this and would be grateful for any assistance that may be forthcoming. Should you be aware of any potential funding please contact the Heathfield Partnership Co-ordinator on 01892 610314.

HAPI will keep you in touch with news of the project's progress through their regular swimming pool updates.
