Splashes refurbishment delays cause confusion and distress
Medway Liberal Democrats are shocked and dismayed that the planned and much needed refurbishment of the Splashes leisure centre is being delayed indefinitely. The £5 million refurbishment project, which was needed to desperately update the facilities within the centre, was announced by the council leadership and the Rainham Councillors as a great victory for them and the community. Councillor Martin Potter, who has been on the task force to deliver the project, said 'We look forward to Splashes once again being a quality, fun family leisure pool for all of our community to enjoy'. Yet here we are 8 months later, and the same council has announced they will no longer be continuing the project, mentioning unspecified structural issues with the project.
