Harry continued in his quest for more swimming facilities for the disabled and when he became aware that Stevenage Development Corporation were building a swimming pool in the town, he lobbied them and The Dolphin Swimming Club were the first private users of the pool in August 1962, followed by Stevenage Swimming Club, which Harry was also involved with at the time.
In October 1962, Harry realised that the pool did not have a first aid room and once again took it upon himself to get the matter sorted. It happened! A section of the ladies' changing area was used and a first aid room was accommodated between the changing areas and the poolside.
Harry was 86 when he died.
