“I grew up in Runcorn after moving from Thailand at a young age — and some of my earliest memories are from this very pool, where I first learned to swim. Years later, it’s exciting to return as part of the team working to give this building a new purpose. After running a street-food-inspired business called East & West, I now help local businesses and UK brands tell their stories through creative media and advertising. It means a lot to be part of preserving a place that shaped my own story.”
