World Leisure UK based in Leyland, Lancashire is celebrating after collecting a Gold Award at the prestigious British Pool & Hot Tub Awards, hosted by BISHTA and SPATA, held on Tuesday 30th January, at the Ricoh Arena, in Coventry. The British and Irish Spa and Hot Tub Association (BISHTA) and the Swimming Pool and Allied Trades Association (SPATA) are the relevant bodies upholding standards within the Wet Leisure Industry. Rebranded in 2015, the first SPATA awards were won 1978, and the first BISHTA awards were won in 2008. These well-established awards are the UK’s number one wet leisure industry accolades.
The Gold SPATA award was presented to World Leisure UK for the Commercial Pool of the Year category sponsored by Astralpool UK in recognition of their commercial pool project situated in a wet leisure facility that offers something for all ages. The installation includes a moveable floor which gives the facility the option to have scuba and swimming lessons as well as mother and toddler groups in the same pool. The forty-five-metre flume is something for older children, and the twenty-five-metre pool allows the site to generate maximum revenue with swimming galas.
Simon Smith from World Leisure UK commented: “We are overjoyed to win a Gold SPATA Award at this year’s British Pool & Hot Tubs Awards, especially alongside such worthy contenders. We always endeavour to excite and delight our clients with our work, so to be awarded by the industry body, is a testament to the hard work our entire team.”
