Waterside Farm Leisure Centre Embraces Solar Energy

The project was part funded by Sport England’s Swimming Pool Support Fund with a £98,800 grant being the significant contribution to a total project cost of £144,628 making this a fantastic investment for Castle Point Borough Council.

“This is a great step forward in making Castle Point a greener space,” said Cllr Tom Gibson, portfolio holder for special projects.

The solar panel installation underscores the centre’s dedication to reducing its environmental impact and contributing to a more sustainable future. This project will significantly reduce the centre’s reliance on traditional energy sources, promoting cleaner energy and lowering its carbon footprint.
