Ten new wild swimming locations should be created in London, report says

According to a report from the London assembly committee, ten new wild swimming locations should be created in London. The report suggests that this move will enhance the cleanliness of the city's waterways and provide greater access to outdoor activities. The report notes that other cities, such as Paris and Chicago, have taken steps to clean up their rivers for swimming purposes. Paris has opened a swimming site in the Seine, while Chicago is running its first river swim in nearly a century. The London assembly committee's recommendation aims to replicate the successes of these initiatives, promoting the use of the capital's waterways for recreational swimming and improving the overall environmental conditions of these urban water bodies.
