Heather Kidd Welcomes Cross Border Access To Free Swimming
Following an initiative by the Liberal Democrat Unitary Council Leader, Nigel Hartin, agreement has been reached for free access to be given to Powys pools for residents living just across County borders. The local and National Press had been alerted to the fact that whilst Shropshire allowed free access under a Government funded initiative to its swimming pools to everybody eligible, irrespective of where they lived, Powys Council barred residents living across the border in Shropshire.
