Floating park, lido and housing proposed for Victoria Dock West Early proposals include a focus on swimming, alongside a wellness centre with a sauna and spa.

The transformation of Royal Victoria Dock West will create one of the city’s most exciting new public spaces.

Londoners to get first official bathing area on Thames at this idyllic spot The filming location for TV drama Broadchurch is also among 13 new designated swimming sites proposed by the Government

All Londoners should be able to swim safely in the capital’s waterways.

A proposed bathing water site on the Thames is a big step forward and could help make that possible if approved. My upcoming Clean and Healthy Waterways Plan will take this further.

Backing community energy gives Londoners better access to green power and helps bring bills down. By growing the capital's community energy sector, we keep energy affordable and make sure the benefits of clean power are shared fairly across our city.
