alchresearch Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 same I would prefer going into a clean, hygienic pool with a cost. I don't think you understand the scheme. The pools used are clean, hygienic and normally have a cost in their use. This is a scheme to get people back into swimming by offering free sessions as a taster to get you through the door. Schweppes did it with their bottled water caps last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Resident Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 I don't think you understand the scheme. The pools used are clean, hygienic and normally have a cost in their use. This is a scheme to get people back into swimming by offering free sessions as a taster to get you through the door. Schweppes did it with their bottled water caps last year. I used to go swimming regularly at the Charles T Broughton Pool at Aston Comp before the shut it down. They used to have long opening times for leisure swimming, especially in the summer months Now there's a new one and it's owned by a private firm (still billed as a 'community' pool) yet now the leisure times consist of 2 hours per day, one hour in the morning, one in the late afternoon. Given that these times mean I often can't make it I've stopped going & it'll probably be the same for many others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alchresearch Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 I'm very disappointed a land locked town like Sheffield isn't participating in this. Is this another example of the city being overlooked? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
