A Council spokesperson said: “Why not take time out and experience the calming effect of the water, give your mood a boost and get a little bit of exercise before launching back into the festivities? Or enjoy some quality time with the family away from the hustle and bustle of the shops? We know which one the kids would prefer! Swimming is proven to reduce the risk of chronic illnesses as well as helping with stress levels.”
