In the coming weeks, the fate of Australia’s oldest existing public pool will be decided.

Without an urgent heritage restoration, the Dawn Fraser Baths will be closed in the near future. As a result, political candidates and community members alike are banding together for the “Defend Dawny’s Rally” this Saturday, the 13th of October.

This morning on Breakfast Tess was joined by one of the coordinators Elly Howse, Labor Candidate for Balmain, to discuss how the power of the people will send a clear message about “saving our pool”.
