<p>At the Budget, we announced a dedicated £63 million support package for swimming
pools, which is targeted at addressing cost pressures facing public swimming pool
providers. It will also help provide investment in energy efficiency measures to reduce
future operating costs and make facilities sustainable in the long-term. Eligibility
criteria for the fund will be published shortly, which will determine the number of
beneficiaries through a competitive process. The Government intends for community
and charitable trusts to be eligible for support.<strong> </strong></p>
