BOSSES at Droitwich Lido say the pool has had the best start to the season it could ever have hoped for, thanks to this week’s heatwave.
Around 1,000 people have visited everyday in the last seven days as the sweltering temperatures reached the mid-30s.
Sharon Keen from Wychavon Leisure, which runs the Lido, told The Standard: “It has been really busy and we have tried to accommodate as many people as we can.
“As well as the usual residents, we have had people currently taking GCSEs and A-levels coming down for swims.
“The food festival on Saturday also helped as it was in the Lido Park and more people have noticed us and know we’re here.”
And there was even more joy for Droitwich Lido this week when it was included in The Sun newspaper’s travel section looking at the best outdoor pools in the country.
