Help Save Manchester's Victoria Baths

Did you all know that our vintage fair on Sunday is part of a fund-raising open day for the Victoria Baths?

Our fair runs from 10am-4pm, entry is just £2 and all proceeds from the door go to the preservation and renovation of the baths, which is a cause close to the heart of many locals and one which visitors to the city can appreciate as worthy.

How many of you are from Manchester, and who learnt to swim at these baths? It seems as though just about all of the local schools used these baths for lessons so there are plenty of people out there who took their first dive in one of the old pools.

As always there will be plenty of exciting exhibitors bringing a huge variety of genuine, high-quality vintage products, from clothes, bags, shoes and jewels to gift, home-ware and much more.
Look out for the Yorkshire Tuck Shop selling all of our favourite old sweets, representatives from The Hope House Museum who will be offering the chance to buy some of their costumes, and of course plenty of exhibitors with 1920s-1970s fashion which you can try on in the swimming pool changing booths!

The Victoria Baths are holding an open day on Sunday to show everyone how much progress has been made so far with the rescue operation on the building and give guided tours.

So come along on Sunday 3 July for some vintage fun and to support an excellent cause. For more inside information go to http://www.discovervintage.co.uk/, follow @discovervintage or search on Facebook. If you are coming then please try and let us know here!
