I learnt to swim in this pool, as did my husband, and at least one of our children. To close this very busy, ideally located pool makes no sense what so ever. I can only imagine that somebody, somewhere is benefitting from its closure/ demolition. In which case it is absolutely disgusting to rob people of such a valuable asset.

I moved away from Grimsby in 1991 and every time I come back for a visit there has been more and more housing built into the green land ..... how do you expect everyone to keep fit ? You will end up with higher NHS bills if you continue to think in such a way... please stop thinking so short term !

closing these facilities would create alot more traffic congestion & prevent physical activity taking place for those who walk to the facilites.

Upgrading the Scartho Road facilites would encourge a greater 'foot fall' for the sports centre & encourage more people to 'get fit & healthy'. As obesity is a very big issue in North East Lincolnshire; I do not think closing this facilities is a good plan for the area.

Rather than closing it down there should be more money invested in getting others involved in using the facilities promoting a healthier lifestyle.
If you want to save some money how's about addressing those job seekers that can work but won't....

There is already a small pool at Grimsby leisure centre. Why build a new pool there that is going to be marginally bigger but without any diving facilities. Louth have managed to build an outstanding facility. Why is it so hard for Grimsby to do the same?

It is too far away for people like me who live the other side of town, its not central like Scartho baths. BAD idea think again please.
