Petition updateRetain diving facilities at Park Road Leisure Centre in Crouch EndCross-party support for the campaign to save the diving pool at Park Road

Save Park Road Diving Pool
Feb 7, 2014
Not only do we have the support of Lynne Featherstone, Lib Dem MP for Hornsey & Wood Green, but earlier this week David Lammy, Labour MP for Tottenham, added his voice to the campaign, noting:
"The Diving Pit at Park Road Pools is not only an important cultural institution for people across the borough; it is one of the few remaining public diving facilities across England. Since 1977, London has seen a 94% reduction in the number of public diving facilities, from ninety-six to now just six venues. However, interest in diving is at an all-time high, no doubt due to the successes of the Olympic Games in 2012. As the Honorary President of Haringey Aquatics, I am deeply concerned by the proposed plans, and I will be pressuring Haringey Council and Fusion to reconsider their position in order to save the cultural gem."
