Not only does it keep kids safe and off the streets but also keeps them healthy. This will not be reflected in extra revenue as many parents will not afford the fees. In some poorer areas there could possibly be a loss of revenue because the parents will not be able to afford to pay for themselves and the kids also cafeteria takings will probably reduce. Long term issue of health care costs and obesity too. Also helps to stop kids joining gangs

This saves the NHS and the government money.

]]> Mon, 21 Jun 2010 01:01:14 UTC 7981694 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/7981416?utm_medium=rss There are many other cuts which could be made. This should definitely not be one of them. For many older people this is the only form of exercise they are able to undertake, and is often on the advice of their GP.

]]> Mon, 21 Jun 2010 12:02:08 UTC 7981408 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/7981374?utm_medium=rss Research published in The Lancet tells us that UK citizens are at greater risk of early death than those of other European countries. We all also know that the incident of death before the age of 60 has been nearly halved in the last 40 years. Surely this coalition government doesn't want to reverse this positive move.

]]> Sun, 20 Jun 2010 02:48:19 UTC 7976258 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/7975991?utm_medium=rss This is ridiculous it keeps kids fit and doing something good rather than hanging about on the streets

]]> Sun, 20 Jun 2010 01:44:50 UTC 7975991 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/7975483?utm_medium=rss I am an old age pensioner on a very limited income, and when I damaged my back found the free swimming a boon. I was gradually getting stronger muscles and more movement into my back, but I suppose that will cease at the end of July when the scheme is stopped, thanks for nothing to this new coalition government.

]]> Sun, 20 Jun 2010 11:39:52 UTC 7975483 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/7975436?utm_medium=rss Being a pensioner over 60years old and having just recouperated from heart surgery I found the free swimming very beneficial. The new government within weeks of being in term takes it away, thanks for nothing.

]]> Sat, 19 Jun 2010 10:42:15 UTC 7971025 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/7970485?utm_medium=rss l use this every week for my children, since l have started to use it my disabled son has started to develop some muscle tone and both children have developed confidence in the water..this is a valuable free service which lots of people use from the young to the elderly. surely this is a valuble service that should and needs to continue. as parents and users of this service we need to stand up for those that can not have a say, the under 16's who do not appear to be important!!!!!
