Start putting our taxes back into Forest Hill, beginning with returning our swimming pool as promised, and prevent a further slide into poverty & disrepair. Protect your residents or pay a far higher price later on.

Its more easier for people who live in and around forest hill to gain access. It would bring other people to the area to utilise the facilities of the swimming pool.

for Forest Hill. This beleagered part of Lewisham
Borough deserves the promise made by our Mayor to reinstate the swimming fascility in
Dartmouth Road and to make it a real centre for
the people of Forest Hill. Not just a quick fix for
now but a place to reinstate a vibrant position
for the future.

]]> Mon, 11 May 2009 05:06:17 UTC 5459532 Mr Michael, Anthony, Philip, Keen, Wilkinson [Signature #458] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5456045?utm_medium=rss It is important for the swimming pool frontage to remain with the Library & Louise House as a continuing historical link, a trio of buildings linking Forest Hill & Upper Sydenham. The regeneration of both Forest Hill & Sydenham requires exambles of the best building from earlier times. Lewisham cannot afford to loose any more quality buildings. The location of the swimming pool was chosen by our forbears because of its important position not to be hidden in a back street!!

At a time when obesity is increasing it is really important to provide public swimming facilities in heavily built up areas like Forest Hill.

The art from local artists and the space is for the local community and beyond.

]]> Sat, 9 May 2009 08:49:14 UTC 5451033 Mr HJ Peters [Signature #455] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5448563?utm_medium=rss From the day the pools were closed we have been lied to. We were told they would reopen in early 2008! By now some people who used the pools to stay healthy will be dead. The way the original proposals were presented was misleading, and Louise House was not an issue. Now it has been made a red herring. This is not just an issue about a public facility but about a community, and our elected officials are letting us down by letting it go on so long and not having the right priorities

]]> Fri, 8 May 2009 07:02:12 UTC 5448563 Mr Anonymous [Signature #454] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5430578?utm_medium=rss There are clear social and economic benefits for keeping the pools at the existing location. Majority of Forest Hill residents (and voters) support this proposal.

Learning to swim is part of the National Curriculum. Lewisham Council has delayed long enough in making this facility available again to the children of Forest Hill.

We also need to build a community in the area and again having a swimming pool in the centre of the town will provide this. We have a fantastic centrally based library and now we also need a centrally based pool

It is a much needed facility and is already greatly missed. We need the Forest hill pools for the good of all the people in the area and to help business suvive. Sean mc ardle

I personally wouldn't walk 20 minutes to the Willow Way site: it would be easier for me to jump on the train and go swimming to Crystal Palace, London Bridge or (when the EELX is completed) Canada Water.

Even if it may take some years, this is a long term asset to it, so will be worth waiting for. Whatever the agreed design, I believe it should remain on this site.

They have been part of the community for 120 yrs and gave an Olympics champion to the UK; the façade was designed by a reputable London architect with the pools in mind, and not with another use or location. Taking this icon away will contribute to degrade London, whose diverse character and history instead should be treasures to capitalize on. There is absolutely no reason for dismembering the completeness of the facilities of Forest Hill.
