Damage caused to the changing rooms at Trimsaran would cost around £50,000 to repair.

Vandals have repeatedly targeted the building, the last time during December which led to the closure of the facility for health and safety reasons.

Bricks and stones were thrown on to the roof causing extensive external damage and leading to the ceiling inside to collapse.
Costs have now been drawn up for repairs with an estimated £50,000 bill for the work.

Trimsaran Rugby Football Club, which uses the changing rooms, were advised to use the facilities at the nearby leisure centre in the interim.

The rugby club has stated its interest in taking over the building through the asset transfer programme and County Council officers are working with the Club to arrange this.

Executive board member for Property Services Cllr Hazel Evans said: “It is really disappointing that a community facility has been so badly damaged by people who are almost certainly part of that community.

“Unfortunately the damage is so extensive it will cost about £50,000 to repair, but the vandals who have caused this problem have got away scot free.”

  • The changing rooms are located in the park. Anyone with information about the vandalism is asked to contact the council on 01267 234567 or emaildirect@carmarthenshire.gov.uk
