There isn’t a better feeling than jumping in a pool on a hot summer’s day, but unless you have your own, you’re a bit limited for choice (no, you can’t fill up the wheely bin…). But, due to popular demand, open water swimming at Canary Wharf is back!
Open to residents, visitors, and workers alike, take a dip in the water whilst enjoying the views of the iconic One Canada Square. Before you panic, the venue is in partnership with Love Open Water who regularly test and ensure that the water is clean and safe to swim in.
So, head over, and cool off!

London turns pink and blue on Saturday 26 July as London Trans+ Pride marks its seventh year. This year’s march will be especially significant following a recent Supreme Court ruling affecting trans rights in the UK.
Since 2019, the event has honoured trans lives lost, celebrated the next generation, and stood up for vital trans rights. Final details are still to be announced, but past years have seen a powerful parade from Trafalgar Square to Wellington Arch. Attendees are often encouraged to wear flowers in tribute to trans, non-binary, gender non-conforming and intersex communities.
