TRAFFORD leisure wants 'more people, more active, more often'. So I went to pay for my granddaughter's swimming lessons.

They refused to take my debit card, or cash, or a cheque. They insisted that I go on line and pay by direct debit.

Not everyone has a computer or even a bank account and they have closed the library at Flixton and then moved it to the swimming baths and then closed that one, so the nearest computer is at Urmston Library.

I have been paying for swimming lessons for the past 20 years with my debit card or cash. I am 65-years-old and I do not have confidence in new technology. I have been told that there is no choice in this. I either do it there way or she does not have swimming lessons. What is this world coming to?
