THE ROYAL PARKS ANNOUNCE CLOSURE OF THE SERPENTINE
The Royal Parks, in consultation with the Serpentine Swimming Club, say they have made “the difficult decision” to suspend swimming in the Serpentine to all swimmers, including Club members, until further notice.
This temporary closure has been as a result of the unprecedented number of new members joining the club since lockdown restrictions were eased, making it extremely difficult for social distancing to take place and to ensure that there is adequate safety cover.
