After a 19-year campaign, @clevelandpools reopens to the public today, with more than 500 people set to enjoy a swim. We're very excited to be among them! Today, the UK's oldest surviving outdoor pool also becomes the country's newest lido. #FutureLidos

As well as the opening of new or rescued lidos in Brighton, Bath and Hull, we’ve seen other lidos reborn this summer. @ware_lido and Northcroft Lido are both looking very fine indeed following major refurbishment by @WareTownCouncil and @WestBerkshire. 👏 #YearOfTheLido

One of the joys of lidos is that each is unique. The three opening this year are equally distinctive: Sea Lanes sparkling on the seafront in #Brighton; the Georgian splendour of @Clevelandpools; and #Hull's Albert Avenue, right on the doorstep of its community. #placemaking

Looking forward to reading this new strategy, and hoping it recognises just how many of us don’t want to be *told* to get active, or have to do ‘sports’, or to compete with anyone - we want accessible, enjoyable, sociable ways to move and connect and be happy. #futurelidos

The Government’s new Sport and Physical Activity Strategy will help the country take strides towards being a healthier, more active nation, uphold integrity in sport and ensure we’re moving towards a more financially and environmentally-sustainable sport sector. Following its…



It’s SO great to see a lido being brought back to a community in the north of England! Massive congratulations to @HullCityCouncil for making this long-term investment in Hull’s future health and well-being. 🏊🏼‍♀️ 🥳 🏊🏾‍♂️

In a magnificent sprint to the starting line, Hull’s Albert Avenue Lido is opening… NOW! 🎉 And as if Hullensians weren’t lucky enough, it’s free all day today! Huge congratulations to @HullCityCouncil and the whole team who made this happen. 🏊🏼‍♀️ 🥳 🏊🏾‍♀️ hcandl.co.uk/albertavenue



Fantastic news! 🏊🏼‍♀️ 🥳 🏊🏾‍♂️

Joyous news! Britain’s oldest lido reopens fully on 10th September after a monumental 19-year community-led journey. With Sea Lanes delighting locals and lido tourists in Brighton since June, and Hull’s Albert Avenue Baths due to reopen soon, 2023 truly is the #YearOfTheLido. 🎉

Freedom and joy leap out from these interviews about conquering the fears and barriers that can keep people from the water. Overcoming these barriers is hugely important to @future_lidos, so that everyone can reap the many benefits that swimming brings. tinyurl.com/Guardian-Labs

If you’ve ever wondered about the value a #lido can bring to a place, have a listen to this message to Tynemouth council from the Mayor of Waverley, a suburb of Sydney, on the huge contribution of their *six* outdoor pools. #FutureLidos #Swimming #Lido #Community

Research for @future_lidos and @TynemouthPool is a privilege. It was an honour, through @davidmajarich, to speak to @paulamasselos about @bondiicebergs, Bronte and the diverse value placed on pools in Waverley. We're grateful to have her ongoing support. Thanks Paula.

Great to connect with so many people to talk about role we can all play in creating equitable access to aquatic activities @Sport_England @GLL_UK @RYA @clarelobster @BWSWHQ @emmaboggis @suewilkinson13 @afPE_PE 🙏@BlackSwimAssoc for bringing such a great group of people together

Looking forward to joining this today and sharing insight with @future_lidos members



Merseyside’s spectacular and much-missed Derby Pool and Southport Sea Bathing Lake are rightly celebrated in this feature on the history of lidos in the July edition of Swim Magazine. It’s time we had a lido of our own again… #futurelidos

A great video about the value of their *six* outdoor pools to the community of Sydney’s coastal suburb, Waverley. Sending good vibes to our friends at @TynemouthPool for their Planning Committee meeting. Whatever the outcome today, we’ll swim with you there one day. 🏊🏼‍♀️ ✊ 🏊🏾‍♀️
