A swimming pool was forced to shut earlier today when a swimmer is believed to have "contaminated" the water.
Dunes in Southport, which operates as swimming baths and a gym, was forced to close one of its pools for a number of hours when one swimmer contaminated the water during what is believed to have been a swimming class with families.
The Sefton Council-run leisure centre unexpectedly closed, with staff having to clean the pool and ensure it was safe for people to use.
