From 2006, it organised Northern Ireland's involvement in the UK School Games. It has recently contributed £7m to the building of Northern Ireland's first 50m swimming pool, for North Down Borough Council, approved in September 2009,[3] being built by Farrans (Construction) (owned by CRH plc).[4] StructureIts head office is based at the Malone Roundabout of the A55 and B103, near Barnett Demesne. FundingIt receives around £7m a year from the National Lottery; the rest comes from the taxpayer.
