the leisure sector continues to feel the pressure - it can't be right that we can eat out to help out at half price but not swim or exercise at half price - support for pools is long overdue !

Devastated along with the rest of the swimming community at this second lockdown. The risks around pools are so low. Clubs are so responsible and sensible. Pools should stay open.

What a farce ! Holidays abroad, beaches rammed and we still can’t have swimming pools open where clubs would be operating with really sensible guidance !
“The majority of lidos are community-run and operate on a financial knife edge. They’re currently unable to earn any money over a summer of good weather and I fear that for some pools this could spell their demise.”
