Walton-on-the-Naze Lifestyles is a vibrant TDC Sports Facility which was built in 1991. The Sports Centre’s pool is popular with residents and visitors to the area. The pool has a teaching pool leading from the Main Pool with a waterslide sitting adjacent to the teaching pool. Walton-on-the-Naze Lifestyles is the only Centre in Tendring District Council’s portfolio of sites which has both a separate teaching pool and a waterslide. The slide is regularly maintained and inspected by external specialist contractors. Due to the ageing condition of the waterslide we are now due some substantial works to ensure the integrity of the waterslide is maintained.

As such, this concurrence is to seek funds to complete remedial repairs where osmosis has caused the gel coat to crack leaving rough edges on 11 sections (inclusive of the stop board) within the waterslide. Additional repairs required within the teaching pool where brickwork is showing signs of chlorinated water damage to the structural column and pool lip. Both of these remedial repairs are required to ensure the integrity and longevity are not compromised so that facilities remain safe and operational.
