 Sport Ireland and Ireland Active this week announced that 8 Coral Leisure centres nationwide have been allocated a total of €109,199 in Covid recovery grants. These grants are specifically for swimming pool operators in recognition of the importance of the sector and the impact swimming has on the nation’s health.  
Minister of State for Sport and the Gaeltacht Jack Chambers TD speaking this week said “Swimming Pool operators demonstrated their resilience throughout the pandemic. It is important that this resilience continues. The funding announced today will assist swimming pool operators to continue getting communities across the country active and providing a real-life skill. This has never been more important and is essential for our physical and mental wellbeing.” 
Coral Leisure centre swimming pools provide a vital resource for schools, clubs and communities across the country, and it is important that this infrastructure is maintained going forward. This investment will help Coral Leisure to continue to provide a safe and essential service which is vital to sustain swimming and maintain high physical activity levels in our local communities 
These grants are the result of weeks of hard work by the Coral Leisure Management and Energy Champions in each centre gathering the relevant data and submitting applications.
