Last day... waving not drowning...

A brilliant last day - for all the right reasons... a lot of fun in the waves... Thanks to all the #LeithWaterworld staff... #goodfolk

Here's the Splashback! goodbye soundtrack: "Water Wonderful World!" on @ShareMyPlaylist. Check it out here

Who we are

Splashback was a group of Edinburgh residents who sought to re-open the unique and well-loved public amenity, Leith Waterworld. The pool was Edinburgh's (and the region's) only leisure pool with flumes, waves, shallow areas and warmer water than conventional pools.

Leith Waterworld closed on 8 January 2012. For a year and a half we campaigned, then worked with the Council to investigate reopening the pool. The Council voted to sell the site on 30 May 2013, cutting short our process and reversing a promise to work with us until the end of 2013 to develop a potential future for the site as a public amenity.

Our vision was to develop and re-open, under community-led management, a revitalised and enhanced Leith Waterworld as a pool, a family leisure destination, and an inclusive hub for health and well-being.
