About Us

In 2004Lewisham Council announced plans to demolish Ladywell Leisure Centre in 2007 - we saved it! The pool will stay open until the forecast replacement is ready.  Sadly the plan is awfully inadequate and instead of being a plan for a community sport and leisure centre it is a plan for a lifestyle pool for the new residential developments to be built in front of Lewisham Station.

In the article Mayor Bullock says:

"I hope that by making swimming free for the borough's children this summer that many of them will learn how valuable and enjoyable swimming regularly can be."

Oh really? Then leave our swimming pool alone and get in your trunks instead Steve.
You may even get rid of that float that you keep under the shirt.
