Govanhill Baths Community Trust

Our film celebrates the 20-year struggle to save Glasgow's iconic public swimming pool and washhouse in Govanhill. Against public opposition, the building was closed in 2001. This sparked a community-led campaign to save and reopen Govanhill Baths. In 2021, almost twenty years to the day the campaign began, work started to refurbish Govanhill Baths as Health and Wellbeing Centre.
