Treading water in the pool of despair


The Swimming Pool trust is in the papers again. This time, this unaccountable body, is pushing the pool out to the long grass. Cllr Ursell (St Neots Conservative Councillor) informs the public the land sale will be pushed back. The trouble is land prices will be depressed for a long time. Cllr Gordon Thorpe (Liberal Democrat) is diminishing expectations over the type of pool from a proper open air swimming pool to a splash/fun pool for children.

This is the trouble with having Councillors in charge of this project. This charity is far too close to the Town Council and should have independent trustees. This is shown with the bad reporting record to the Charity Commission.
