Read here about our campaigning on swimming<\/a> and other matters concerning the Ladies Pond and Hampstead Heath<\/a>. Our legal action to fight discriminatory charges for swimming on Hampstead Heath is awaiting the outcome of Judicial Review<\/a>. Thanks to everyone who supported and contributed financially to our campaign.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
The KLPA is independent of the City of London and the Hampstead Heath management. It is run on a purely voluntary basis for and by pond users, there are no paid staff. Officers and the committee are elected annually at the AGM, which is usually held in March.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our priority is to preserve the pond with its peaceful, natural qualities and to maintain it as a women’s swimming place. Occasionally this means we need to lobby or campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Otherwise, we exist to provide information and encourage women to enjoy the pond. We produce a newsletter for members about three times a year and organise a variety of events for fun, including a festive swim at midday on New Year’s Day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Membership is open to all women and the annual subscription is \u00a35.00.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Please note that membership does not cover the cost of swimming at the pond, details of which can be found here<\/a> along with opening times and other visitor information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
