  London Pools Campaign: about the London Pools Campaign
This is the website of the ‘London Pools Campaign’ an organisation set up by 6 of the threatened and closed London swimming pools to highlight the plight of swimming in the capital, particularly in the light of the government’s very recent commitment to combat Britain’s couch potato culture.
For example Sport England’s survey Sports participation and ethnicity in England 1999/2000 found “Swimming rates very highly amongst men and women from all ethnic groups as a sport they currently don't participate in that they would like to, and rates are higher generally for women than men.
For example Haggerston Pool in Hackney was closed in February 2000 and one of the justifications given was that swimmers could go to York Hall a couple of miles down the road in Tower Hamlets.

The lack of lines in south London is sometimes attributed to the geology of that area, the region being almost one large aquifer; additionally, it is impossible for cut and cover lines to go under the River Thames.
Another reason is that during the great period of tube-building in the early 20th century south London was already well served by the efficiently-run suburban lines of the London and South Western Railway and the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway, then being electrified, which obviated Underground expansion into those areas.
A prize of £100,000 was offered by the Mayor of London during the hot summer of 2003 for a solution to the problem, but the competition ended in 2005 without a winner being announced.
