Presenting a petition to the Department of Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy calling on more support for swimming pools in the Energy Bill Relief Scheme review

In 2017, I helped to establish the first All-Party Parliamentary Group on Swimming and I am very proud to continue as its Chair.

Swimming is the largest participation sport in the country and our APPG seeks to raise issues surrounding school swimming and access to affordable swimming lessons, as well as to promote the restoration of swimming baths and the uptake of outdoor swimming and water safety.

During the Covid-19 pandemic, I worked with Swim England on their #OpenOurPools campaign.  The campaign sought not only to emphasise the importance of getting pools open as soon as possible, but also to help facilities financially impacted by the coronavirus pandemic.  Since the pandemic, I have campaigned for more support for swimming pools hit hard by soaring energy costs and still recovering from the impacts of the pandemic disruption.
