Cover: With mixed fortunes across the water leisure sector, we could not resist bringing you this issue’s front cover – which we hope at least makes you smile!
WELCOME
It is almost biblical isn’t it? Not only have we been living and working through a pandemic under the shadow of a demonic world leader in Donald Trump, many UK regions have also been hit by catastrophic floods. Feeling challenged? Look out for the swarm of locusts that is clearly preparing for take-off!
While we wait patiently for our vaccine call and some sort of return to normality, we hope you will take some quality time and immerse yourself in the latest edition of Swimming Pool Scene, simply the only UK magazine that is intrinsically involved in both residential and commercial sectors of the water leisure markets.
Covid-19 has claimed the usual presentations of many key events and exhibitions. So, SPATEX organisers are inviting you to get on-line for a wealth of seminars and presentations as this year’s show goes virtual. Our Inside The Box feature urges you to save the dates of February 2 to 4 and support this new style of presentation, read more inside. PWTAG go on-line too with their annual conference in March. More information inside.
You will also see coverage on the mixed fortunes for the residential and commercial pool trade sectors as we invite you to Mind the Gap. We gather the current thinking of key players in that hard hit public pools sector. Some gloomy predictions for sure, but we also highlight opportunities for companies such as environmental control advantages from our UK Pool & Spa Awards supplier of the year, Heatstar.
This edition of Swimming Pool Scene is packed with good news for those companies that triumphed in the recent UK Pool & Spa Awards with our Spotlight On Water Leisure. Delighted to say that the competition will be re-opening on May 1st – what are you waiting for? Start gathering those photographs and project information straight away to earn your company one of the biggest marketing boosts available!
