From next week, Bath Recreation Ground will be transformed into a vast walk-in labyrinth of colour, light and live music as Colourscape comes to the city for nine days across May half term. 🥳

Step inside an acre-sized world of glowing chambers, shifting colour and immersive sound, where musicians and performers appear as you explore. No two journeys through Colourscape are ever the same 💫

We’re incredibly excited to bring this extraordinary experience to Bath and would like to say a huge thank you to all of our partners and supporters helping make it happen ❤️

Appointment of new role - General Manager, Activity at Bath Recreation

Alicia John has joined Bath Recreation in this new and exciting role for the organisation as Bath Recreation continues to grow, influencing the recreational landscape in and around Bath, while developing a new chapter that will have a lasting impact on the community of Bath in nurturing positive lifestyles.

Alicia said, “This role will give me the chance to bring bigger picture thinking into play to positively impact the unfairness and inequality that we see here in Bath, using a tool that is close to my heart in sport and recreation.”

Alicia has recently completed an Executive MBA at the University of Bath and excelled in professional roles at the university for over 10 years culminating in Franchise Manager, Team Bath Netball. Bath Recreation has strong interaction with the University of Bath and Alicia will certainly maintain and build on one of Bath Recreation’s key relationships.

Bath Recreation, as a charity, has been able to create positive change with the in-schools Buds Programme in primary schools in Bath, developing teamwork, trust, resilience, positivity and respect, while the Glasshouse Academy has had more one-to-one relationships boosting confidence, enthusiasm and engagement. Alicia will be overseeing these programmes; building on the current success whilst showing a commitment to a longer-term plan to improve access and opportunity for sport and recreation for the people of Bath.

Alicia commented, “The power of sport and recreation to transform lives and communities is immeasurable. I am really excited by the prospect of driving forward a programme that can, in a sustainable way, reach into the heart of our city and provide choice and opportunity for a better future.”

Bath Recreation is a financially sustainable charity that is pursuing three strategic goals to demonstrate that we can prove a model for the future of recreation.
