Summary ofthe main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity's work has made to the circumstances of ils beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole. Pdra 1.20 However, rising costs associated with the Netherhall School pool and restrictions imposed by the school's governors led the trustees to explore the feasibility of constructing a new pool on or near The Wave in Maryport. In 2019, additional funding was obtained through the Bright Ideas Fund (Power to Changel to support a swimming needs assessment and feasibility study. This study incorporated capital and ongoing revenue costs, along with a series of community consullalions. The final report, completed in February 2020, was shared with Allerdale Borough Council and local councillors, who expressed their support for reintroducing swimming facilities to Maryport. Trustees continued to collaborate with members ofthe Maryport Regeneration team to advance the project. In 2021, Allerdale Borough Council confirmed that a new swimming pool was included in a series of regeneration initiatives for the town, with funding secured through the Future High Street Fund IFHSI and the Heritage Action Zone {HAZ}. Allerdale Borough Council ceased to exist when the new unitary authority, Cumberland Council took over on 1st April 2023. Due to rising costs and long-lerm revenue implications, the Council decided not to progress with the swimming pool plans - see here. Therefore, the trustees have decided lo close the CIO as there is no other viable alternative in Maryport.
