Our aim is to provide under 16s in Bradford with the opportunity to swim for free! We personally feel that this is a major factor in our hometown and could do with some adapting. Due to recent events in our area, we have realised that activities such as swimming could attract the attention of the youth instead of other illegal acts.
Growing up in such a city opens up a pathway leading to illegal opportunities. And we want to divert this path in order to guide the youth onto a path which leads them to further opportunities in life.
By signing this petition you are helping us move one step closer in convincing the local government that this is a legitimate issue.
Thank You!
I have been hearing from so many of you who see the exact same struggles in our streets that I grew up with. We are currently gathering more documentation on local youth programs to present to the council so they can finally see the urgency of providing these safe spaces.

Seeing this progress reminds me why I started this fight for my hometown. It is incredible to know so many people want to give our youth a safer path forward.
