Regardless of Hillingdon Council’s plans there are already bathers in Ruislip Lido, so clearly in tandem with any proposals there needs to be enforcement.

Unless of course this is a modern method for testing the suitability of water for swimming; using human guinea pigs.

FORL urge any members of the public to contact the police if they see any criminal activities taking place at the Lido.

Non-emergency contact number

Please can any FORL members attend a petition hearing on Wednesday 2nd June - Venue Committee Room 3 – Civic Centre, High Street, Uxbridge UB8 1UW, at 7pm. The petition is against allowing swimming or boating at the Lido thereby stopping the disruption to the wildlife; Sandra Jenkins will be residing. This is NOT a FORL petition, we are in support and kindly ask as many FORL as possible to attend.
