<p>Information on the number of publicly owned indoor and outdoor swimming pools that

and 2021 Sport England is investing £12.16 million in Swim England to get more people
swimming, and £30 million through its Strategic Facilities Fund to construct 24 new
state of the art leisure facilities which include swimming pools. We have also set
up an implementation group to explore the recommendations from the school swimming
report published last year, including how we can work with local authorities and private
operators to make better use of facilities.</p>
