Tāwera Community Trust

Welcome to the Tāwera Community Trust!

We’re the team breathing new life into the historic Sheffield Memorial Pool. We’re on a mission to transform this beloved 1953 landmark from a heritage treasure into a modern, sustainable aquatic hub for our rural community.

Why does it matter? In our rural community, the pool is the beating heart of summer. It’s where generations connect, kids learn to swim, and neighbors catch up under the Canterbury sun. By retaining and upgrading this facility, we’re not just keeping a pool open, we’re securing a space that fosters wellbeing, social connection, and vital local resilience.

We’re future proofing our legacy with ambitious refurbishment plans, embracing renewable energy, and creating a space that’s truly built for everyone. Join us in shaping this exciting chapter! Together, we’re ensuring the Sheffield Memorial Pool remains a vibrant, cool, and essential part of our community for generations to come.
