GALASHIELS swimming pool reopened this morning, for the first time in over a week.
The facility in Livingstone Place was forced to close last Monday after vandals smashed a plate-glass window.
The pool had to be drained, cleaned and refilled before it was safe to use.
And now swimmers can return, thanks to the hard work of staff and volunteers.
Live Borders, which runs the facility said: "Thank you to everyone in our local community for your continued support, patience, and well-wishes. We're looking forward to welcoming you back very soon."
