Podcast: People left out of pocket after sudden closure of swim school run by international athlete

from KentOnline · host KentOnline, Lucy Hudson

Dozens of people have been left out of pocket after a swim school run by a former international athlete closed suddenly. All About Swimming Ltd, which operated at pools in Wilmington and Cobham, was run by former Commonwealth Games swimmer Angela Wilson. Also in today's episode, hear from residents who say dust from work on a new development has left them fearing for their health. 300 homes are being built at Ufton Court Farm outside Tunstall, and the people behind the project insist appropriate measures are being taken to minimise disruption. People in Chatham have been responding to government plans to make it harder for betting shops to open up in our High Streets. Currently, a council's powers to refuse new betting shops are limited if they meet licensing requirements - however new rule changes would see that scrapped. The manager of a youth club in Broadstairs has been telling us about the challenges for staff and children during the extreme heat. The Zone Youth Club is based in the pavilion at St Peter's Recreation Ground, and is unable to afford air conditioning. And, the Gillingham manager is feeling confident ahead of their first league two game of the season. They are taking on Walsall at Priestfield on Saturday afternoon.
