We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to Subsidise sports facilities - save Burnham Swimming Pool. More details
Submitted by Verena Clare Brandon – Deadline to sign up by: 18 April 2008 – Signatures: 1,043
The swimming pool at Burnham-on-Sea will shortly be closed because Sedgemoor District Council cannot afford to subsidise it. What sort of message is this sending out about the importance of exercise and fitness? Where else can we swim? Where can schoolchildren learn to swim? Pools are very important facilities for many community members. Museums are subsidised - why not sports facilities?
