EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph from September 1935 transports us back in time to the Horsham swimming baths demonstration. The image, part of the George Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office, captures a moment filled with joy and excitement. In the foreground, we see a group of children eagerly gathered around a clock, their faces beaming with anticipation for what lies ahead. The scene is set against the backdrop of a charming café, bustling with activity as people enjoy refreshments and engage in lively conversations. It's evident that this was not just an ordinary day at the swimming baths; it was an occasion that brought together families and friends to celebrate life's simple pleasures. Amongst the crowd are boys and girls adorned in their swimwear, proudly sporting their swimming hats. Their enthusiasm is infectious as they chatter away with one another, eager to dive into the crystal-clear waters awaiting them. This print encapsulates a snapshot of pure happiness frozen in time. It serves as a reminder of how even amidst challenging times like those faced during 1935, communities found solace and joy in coming together for shared experiences. As we gaze upon this remarkable image today, we can't help but feel grateful for these timeless moments captured by West Sussex County Council's archives – reminders of our collective history that continue to inspire us today.
