The government policy for free swimming for children and pensioners has been a massive success in Medway with more people taking to water without hurting their pockets.
According to the Medway Messnger, since the scheme was introduced 121,000 people have benefited from the Labour Policy which was a key plank of the manifesto in 2005.
In Medway, there was an increase of 180% increase in free swimming amongst the under 16s. A policy which will challenge the rising obesity rates across Medway. Medway has one of the strongest records for encouraging swimming in the UK.
Free swimming has been an unmitigated success. See David Walliams below
