    Story

    In celebration of the Peterborough Lido's 80th year in operation, Vivacity, in partnership with the Peterborough City Council, will commemorate the incredible life of Walter by installing a weather vane at the Lido in his memory.

    The working sculpture is to be unveiled by the Mayor of Peterborough, Cllr, John Peach at the opening of the Lido on Saturday 28th May 2016, and Vivacity are looking for support from local residents to help raise £5,000 in funds to remember this incredible man.
