LAST minute preparations are being put in place to help make a splash at the opening of Hinksey’s outdoor pool this Friday morning.
Lucy Cherry, leisure manager at Oxford City Council, and Richard Williams, of Fusion Lifestyle, were at the open air pool off Abingdon Road yesterday making sure the attraction was topped up ahead of the opening.
Ms Cherry said: “I hope people come and enjoy the pool during the summer months.”
The pool will be open at 7am and costs £5.70 for adults and £3.70 for children. Top temperatures during the day will be 14C and cloudy. On Saturday, there will be a special open day when the cost of a dip will be waived to swimmers after 2pm.
