MAY we take this opportunity to respond to letters printed in recent editions of the Citizen regarding swimming facilities in the Lancaster and Morecambe area.

As part of the South Lakeland Caravans group of holiday parks, Ocean Edge Leisure Park at Heysham can provide a range of benefits with the well maintained swimming pool and sauna. The pool is available for public use and is now open 12 months a year, from 9am to 7pm daily. We have a fully qualified lifeguard who can offer swimming and coaching lessons to children and adults alike at a very competitive rate. Memberships are now available on a monthly or yearly basis for adults and families from only £99 for unlimited swims for a year. Although we cannot offer an argument for the Government's alleged plans, we would like your readers to be aware of the fact that we believe the encouragement of children to learn to swim is of paramount importance due to the coastal area in which we live and also for the health benefits of regular exercise. We are sure Ocean Edge pool is the perfect environment for a relaxing swim or sauna but also offers children the ability to learn without having to take to the sea. We hope your readers may take the time to experience our facilities for themselves but if further information is required call 855657 or see the advert in the Citizen.
