The London Pools Campaign has been set up by 8 pool campaigns across London (Haggerston, York Hall, London Fields Lido, Poplar Baths, Brockwell Lido, Hampton Pool Richmond, Marshall Street Baths Soho and Swiss Cottage Pool). They have met with Sport England, the GLA and the Amateur Swimming Association to look at how pools can be funded in a better way - since the problems are similar across London in both rich and poor boroughs.
The launch of the London campaign is next Wednesday 5th March at the York Hall campaign's demo outside Tower Hamlets Town Hall. They have some good press-coverage - see below. If you would like to come and demonstrate for Haggerston Pool, please see details below. They will be going with banners from the Haggerston campaign - you can just turn up or if you need a lift get in contact and they'll will try to arrange it (7690 6662).

The Building Exploratory in Hackney is hoping to re-address this balance with its 'Women in Architecture and Construction' Training Day. A team of professional female Architects and construction experts will work closely with girls aged 14-16 from local schools, to enthuse and educate about careers in the fields of architecture and construction. The girls will have the opportunity to learn how to read architectural drawings, sketch plans and work in teams to design and produce models of buildings to set design briefs.
For further information please contact Amanda Riddick on 020 7275 8555
