📦 We're Moving 📦

With this exciting new chapter, it’s time for a fresh start on social media too. This current page isn't fully secured by our team, and we worry we might lose access to it down the line. We certainly don't want to lose touch with any of you!

Please head over and follow our brand-new page Jed Valley Swim

From today onwards, the new page is where all of our updates, campaign progress, and news will live. We will be archiving this old page in a couple of months, so please make the jump today to ensure you don’t miss a thing.

Thank you all for your incredible support so far—let's keep this fantastic momentum going together! 💙

We’ve just had word from Cllr Scott Hamilton for Jedburgh & district that Scottish Borders Council have approved our initial business plan and revenue funding ask. Even better, the debate was absolutely full of praise for the group and community and everything we’ve achieved so far.

This is a massive result, and it is entirely down to the incredible hard work, engagement and dedication of everyone involved. Thank you to Scott, but also the fantastic officers at Scottish Borders Council and the team at South of Scotland Enterprise for helping steer the group throught the process thus far.

What’s next?
The funding is conditional on us successfully drawing down the Borderlands funding, so the real graft starts now to get this over the line. We’re already looking to the future and keeping this brilliant momentum going.

đź“… Next Steps:
We will be setting a date very soon for a meeting to plan our next moves. Thank you for supporting this; your energy is exactly what we need for this next chapter.

Eyes on the prize, everyone.

The business plan in the name of 'Jed Valley Swim' will be presented to SBC in May/June 2026. We are making great progress with support from the Scottish Borders Council and South of Scotland Enterprise, but we can't do it alone—we need you!
