Power to the People group invite you to a screening of ‘United We Will Swim … Again’ tomorrow at 6.30 in North Edinburgh Arts.
The film tells the story of the long struggle by the Govanhill community of Glasgow to stop the closure of their local swimming pool. The pool was saved after local people occupied the building for 6 months. It eventually reopened and is now a thriving community facility.
The film is an inspirational story which provides a bit of hope and encouragement in terms of what can be achieved when people come together with a common purpose. A member of the campaign will attend the screening and will take part in a Question & Answer.
A bus has been arranged to take people to North Edinburgh Arts. The bus will leave Royston/Wardieburn Community Centre at 6pm. Anyone requiring transport should call the centre on 552 5700.
