 Hurst Pool: Enhance and improve
Earlier this year in July, we said we would explore three feasibility options for Hurst Pool in Molesey.
We have now considered all these options, the needs of the service, the needs of the community and financial stability of the council and we are recommending that the most prudent option is to refurbish Hurst Pool.
Residents and Hurst Pool customers are welcome to share their views on the refurbishment plan. Please complete the Hurst Pool survey, which will be open until end of day 31 January 2024.
We will also arrange some informal drop-in sessions at Hurst Pool to talk users and residents through the refurbishment plans. Dates and times to follow.
