Tributes have been paid to a long-serving and 'well-loved' lifeguard who collapsed and died while on shift at Blackburn Sports and Leisure Centre just days before Christmas

Tributes have been paid to a long-serving and 'well-loved' lifeguard who collapsed and died while on shift at Blackburn Sports and Leisure Centre just days before Christmas.

In a statement on Facebook this morning, BwD Leisure said: "Following the tragic passing of a long-serving member of staff at Blackburn Leisure Centre last night, the venue will remain closed today as a mark of respect. The centre was closed last night following the sudden collapse of one of our well-loved lifeguards who sadly passed away.

"Colleagues at BwD Leisure are naturally devastated. We are closing the centre as mark of respect and to allow colleagues some time to come to terms with the loss. "Customers and other people affected have been contacted directly and the centre will re-open at 6am tomorrow . Thank you for your understanding at this incredibly sad time."
