No wonder accy is getting worse when even the facilities are stopped or closed down & they wonder why kids doss on the st corners 
HSC, wasn't aware that no changes were made to HBC website, their management committee decided to close early on Sunday at 2pm for swimming section from jan 31st 07, yet today they could of had a pool full this afternoon having a roaring trade but sadly lost their trade to surrounding out of town areas instead & they wonder & yet no member of the public was aware of this change either until they turn up like us today! But the swimming pool closes early than other places at 4.30pm on sat & 5pm weekday  so really not great times anyway as earlier than other places that can cater for after school swimmers till 6pm or even 8pm.
Luckily went elsewhere thanks to Hyndburn disappointing quite a lot of kiddies today hoping for a family swim |
They're closing the pool at 1.45pm on Saturdays aswell,I found out today.Very annoying,what's going on?They wouldn't let me in today as I had the audacity to turn up with two children aged 6 and 3 and no other adult to accompany me.They said we couldn't go in as the adult/child ratio for the under 4s is one to one.I told them she is nearly 4 and the little one did tears but still the heartless jobsworth stood firm.
Seriously,I know they are only trying to cover themselves in case of accidents and they have to draw the line somewhere but I am losing patience with Hyndburn Sports Centre at the moment.With one thing and another it looks like they don't like customers coming in.
