This web site has been created to keep swimmers up to date about efforts to re-open the Woodgreen pool
and we want to be in touch with the thousands who have signed and are continuing to sign our petition to our two councils. We would greatly appreciate it if you would send us your email addresses  so that we can contact you quickly should there be a need to do so. We just don't have the funds to do a postal mailshot. Send your info to
dknight29@btinternet.com who is  compiling a proper data base.
