Thank you to all the committee members who were able to take time out from their work and caring commitments this morning to offer tea, coffee, fruit and cake to morning swimmers. Special thanks to the creativitiy of lifeguard Jane Smith for her wonderful willow and wildflower decorations, to co-chair Pauline Latchem for incredibly delicious gingerbread lady swimmers, to committee member Sybil Bell for heart-shaped brownies, to Adele for the edible swimming cap and to all the other supportive swimmers who contributed delicious baked goods.
This was a chance to celebrate the Ladies’ Pond as a safe, welcoming and inclusive space for all women and girls, and we look forward to seeing more swimmers joining us as the weather and water warm over the coming weeks.
