And therefore, this will also be adding to the added value of investment in the sports sector that we have in Rabat, Gozo. However, even here, when it comes to therapy for various uses.\u201d<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"HwtZe\" lang=\"en\"><span class=\"jCAhz\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">Mayor of G\u0127arb David Apap explained how \u201cthis swimming pool is complementary to what the Central Government has just accomplished, an Olympic-sized swimming pool which thanks to Clint Camilleri, Minister for Gozo, this project has also become a reality. This therapeutic swimming pool is something that can be complementary so that people can also use this heated pool which is properly heated.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"HwtZe\" lang=\"en\"><span class=\"jCAhz\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\"> This professional and specialized facility is ideal for young children, the elderly, people with disabilities and those who

number of people, between 15 and 18 people at a time, depending on the type of session.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">This limit is essential to maintain a high level of
