'Edwardsville Swimming Pool is a much loved and well used facility. It is a focal point in our local community though it is also used by people fom the surrounding area. Merthyr Tydfil Borough Council plan to close this facility thus depriving our community of the oppprtunity to swim locally and keep healthy'
'We the undersigned would like children to have their right to a long and healthy life fully protected by the availability of swimming facilities that many of them can walk to. We therefore call on the Assembly to do all it canto assist us to keep swimming pools such as the one in Edwardsville, open for continued use to help maintain health and well-being in local communities'
