Birley Spa is Sheffields' only Victorian Plunge Pool. We are committed to the restoration and re-opening this community bathhouse.

As the area around Birley Spa flourishes with new leisure businesses and the arrival of tourists is a reality not a dream, so #BirleySpa continues to deteriorate and has failed to be protected from the winter of 2019-2020. @SheffCouncil #losingourheritageisreal @BBCLookNorth

Our Halloween event was a huge success. Over 70 people attended, just think what we could achieve with refurbishment #BirleySpa #Sheffieldissuper

One of our visions for the woodland at #BirleySpa #Sheffield
Walk among the tree tops when you arrive at this Georgian landscape garden. Do you know which of the places we care for this is?

In a very professional and supportive way the town hall is now open for business and we are busy trying to save Birley Spa together!! #birleyspa @SheffCouncil

Sheffield Council strike again and Birley Spa will be lost to residential or office use! We are campaigning for a #KarmaHub with community spa and modern therapies for #forestbathers #yogalife #wildlife @SaveSheffTrees @michaelgove #loosingourheritageisreal @PrivateEyeNews
The Friends of Birley Spa need to be given a chance to save the building. Our viable business partner was hardly considered. We calculated we could secure 100-200k funding, also hardly considered. #heritage #birleyspa #stinksofulteriormotives @ItsOurCitySheff @SheffCouncil
Four Town Hall meetings. No agendas, chair, minutes taken. False promises throughout, confusion over courses of action. Property services guy told us not to try to bribe him because he is a professional!!?? How dare he assume we are not professionals. #birleyspa @SheffCouncil

April Councillors were using Friends of Birley Spa for photo ops during election canvassing. July Council says find £200,000 in next 4 weeks or we sell it. Knowing they can't raise any funding because Council won't back any funding bid. Just when you think SCC can't get worse.
Sad times for the building but our first investor is viewing the property within the next 7 days #birleyspa
