Do you use Ryton Pools? Did you know you can buy an annual car parking pass rather than pay each time you go? And even better, if you are a resident of Ryton-on-Dunsmore you can get that pass at a discount rate – half price.
The Country Park can sell you a barrier parking permit for £36 which runs for 12 months from the day of purchase but the Parish Office can sell you a permit that runs from April 2016 through to March 2017 for just £18 (further discounts for disabled badge holders at £14.50), so apply now and enjoy a whole year’s access to Ryton Pools. These reduce rate permits will be available until September 2016.
Complete the application form and deliver it to the Parish Clerk at the Village Hall (there is a letter box) with a cheque payable to “Ryton-on-Dunsmore Parish Council” and you will be sent a permit to access the car park.
If you have a expired permit then you can claim back your £5 deposit as the new permits do not require a deposit.
