Local SNP Councillors Attend Opening of New Broch Pool

Local SNP councillors Brian Topping and Charles Buchan attended yesterday’s open day at the new Fraserburgh Community and Sports Centre, which attracted hundreds of visitors on its first day, opening two months ahead of schedule.

The Fraserburgh Community and Sports Centre is the biggest facility of its kind in Aberdeenshire. Features include a 25m swimming pool and smaller learner pool; a flume; multi-use sports hall including gymnastic equipment; dance studio; training kitchen; two saunas and a steam room; a pop-up library and a number of multi-purpose rooms.

Vice-chair of the Banff & Buchan Area Committee, Fraserburgh SNP councillor Brian Topping, said:

“This facility is something that the people of Fraserburgh, and the wider Banff and Buchan area, can be proud of.

“Working in partnership with other leisure and community facilities in Fraserburgh, the new centre will mean a wide choice of activities for local people.”

Fellow Fraserburgh SNP councillor Charles Buchan added:

“This is great news for Fraserburgh and district. This is the best facility north of Stirling!

“This will give us a significant further attraction to the town. We and the Community have worked hard, and waited a long time, to get the new Fraserburgh Community and Sports Centre to the town, and the people of Fraserburgh deserve Aberdeenshire's newest and best sports facility.”
