The Saltdean Lido Campaign is expecting to hear shortly about its application for Grade II* listing which will give it an extra layer of protection. In the meantime the Campaign has applied for £5,000 to set up their volunteer programme through the Co-op's competition - "Join the Revolution". Each region of the country with the most public votes will win and the Lido is currently ranked no.1 for the entire country. Everyone who is interested in saving this Art Deco masterpiece for future generations can help by going through a quick registration procedure on "Join the Revolution" and voting for the Lido Campaign. In addtion to the money, which will be used to set up a volunteer programme, (150 local residents have already pledged their time) winning will generate great publicity backed by a national advertising campaign.
The Lido in 1939:-
Hold back the tide of time and progress. Black Rock went before anyone realised what had vanished. We need to save our past otherwise we'll have no effin' future
