Last year several hundred people, including local school pupils, wrote letters to the Council asking that the Baths reopen for swimming. A consultation exercise for the HLF bid found quite overwhelming support for swimming in the building. We’ve received so many messages from people upset that swimming may stop at Moseley Road Baths. It’s clear that local councillors are not representing the very clear wishes of local people and failing in their duty to provide swimming facilities.
So, just to make them aware of the strength of feeling and to coax them into committing to the future of the building as a public swimming pool, we will be lobbying the:
Hall Green District (constituency) meeting
next Tuesday 22 Jan
12.15pm at the Council House, Victoria Square
We appreciate that this is a mid-week lunchtime, but if you can commit to come along, make a placard etc. then this would be wonderful in demonstrating the opposition that exists to the Council’s policy towards the building. We know you are a creative and vocal bunch, and the press do so love a pretty picture, so please do what you can!
