Cleveland Pools Update - 19/02/26

We’re sharing a new progress update on the work underway to understand the flood damage at Cleveland Pools and what’s needed to reopen them.

Since the flooding in January 2024, the Trust has been carrying out detailed technical and engineering investigations. These are now complete and have confirmed both the extent of the damage and the remedial works required. The scale of the repairs means that identifying a viable route to funding is now our main focus.

This update also marks a point of transition for the Trust. We want to thank Paul Simons and Ina Harris, who have stepped down as Chair and Deputy Chair after many years of commitment and leadership. Their work was instrumental in restoring and reopening the Pools in 2023, and we’re very grateful for everything they’ve done.

We know the last couple of years have been frustrating for many people, especially those who have continued to support and care for the site while the Pools have been closed. We recognise that our communication hasn’t always been as clear or regular as it should have been, and we’re committed to improving that going forward.

Statement from Cleveland Pools Trust and Fusion on the current situation at the Pools.

Unfortunately, last week the pools flooded again, which has caused further delay with our efforts to reopen. Our apologies, we know this will be disappointing for our visitors and we’re all working hard to reopen the pools as soon as possible.

We will update everyone as soon as we know more.

Thank you to those of you who came to our ‘Meet the Manager’ session last Thursday, it was lovely to see so many of you and hear some great feedback ready for when we reopen the Pools.

Unfortunately, at this moment in time we still don’t have a reopening date, but are hoping to be able to release one soon.

A reminder that our inbox is still being monitored, so if you have any questions or queries please feel free to email us at [email protected].

We appreciate your patience during this challenging time and can’t wait to welcome you back soon!
