Windows at a Black Country leisure centre have been covered up at the request of Muslim women who do not want people to see them swimming. The move at Darlaston Leisure Centre was today criticised by other swimmers. Walsall Council said it acknowledged the request of the Muslim community, adding that it could not afford to put frosted glass in.
