Volunteers splash a few finishing touches on village's outdoor pool
A Shropshire leisure centre's outdoor heated pool is all set to open after a team of volunteers finished sprucing it up for the summer season.
The 25-metre, four-lane pool at the Halo Severn Centre in Highley, near Bridgnorth, is opening for the summer this Saturday, May 27.
But the community pool would be unable to start the season without a team of volunteers who helped bring the open-air pool back up to standards.
The group spent last weekend pressure washing, painting, sanding down railings, weeding, grass cutting and cleaning.
Thanking the volunteers, Halo, which runs the heated pool, said it wanted to "extend a heartfelt thank you" to all its volunteers.
Thanking the team on Facebook, the social enterprise said: "Your dedication and hard work truly made a difference.
"Your efforts have undoubtedly transformed our pool area into a clean and welcoming space for everyone to enjoy. We couldn't have done it without you.
"Once again, a massive thank you to each and every volunteer who contributed their time, energy, and enthusiasm to make the Severn Centre a better place for our community.
"Your dedication exemplifies the true spirit of unity and service. We are immensely grateful for your unwavering support!"
