Save your local pool

Imagine yourself, a water baby and you swim everyday before heading to work or school.
In this local pool you learnt how to swim and where you cool down in summer and exercise in winter.
But what happens, when your local council says the aquatic centre will be shut down, because the funds are unavailable.
Locals Murray from Epping, joined by James, who are part of the Save Epping pool movement speak out what it’s like for them when you find out you can’t swim in your local pool anymore.
Coming up also are locals from Bondi – Paul and Rido.
