Mayor Boris Been at Greenwood primary school over in Ealing today. Pupils had a fantastic time splashing about in the new mobile pool that we're funding in partnership with Variety Club and MWBEX - it shows what can happen when the public, private and voluntary sectors work together. Gladiators Enigma and Doom were on hand to show... the kids some display tricks in the water. After Greenwood it will move to another part of London - we want people to MAKE A SPLASH - even if they do not live near a regular pool - it's fantastic sport, great exercise, and also wonderful fun. This is just the start and we will be investing £7.5m in a range of community sports facilities to increase participation in sport and physical activity. Go on - www.makeasplashlondon.org
