The planned closure of Mile End School Swimming Pool is happening without any public consultation. The removal of this community facility built by public donation is a travesty! This will deny over 2,000 children the opportunity to learn a life skill of swimming & qualifications.
Please fill in and sign this petition and pledge to keep this facility running- your address and post code will not be viewable to other users of this site.
Also please DO NOT be 'anonymous' because we need your name!

save our pool!!! its been here for years and serves so many people. stop cutting corners and look at what this actually does to the neighborhood.
my kids learned to swim here and now my grandson is supposed to start lessons next month. you cant just take this away from the community!
Swimming is a life skill not a luxury. Keeping the pool open is the only right thing to do.
Ridiculous decision. Where are the kids supposed to go now? Driving across town is not an option for most families around here.
Absolute disgrace. No consultation at all? Typical.

Keep the pool open. We pay our taxes and we deserve to keep our local facilities. Quit closing everything down!
