Where appropriate, disused bathing ponds and lidos should be brought back into use. 3.114 The 2012 Paralympic Games provide an opportunity to change attitudes around disabled people’s participation in sport and physical activity. Development proposals should ensure that inclusive access issues are addressed from the outset (see Policy 7.2) so that programmes such as the Inclusive Fitness Initiative can be effective in increasing disabled and older people’s ability to participate.

Sport England has also published an updated guidance note on Accessible Sports Facilities 69 to ensure that new sports facilities meet inclusive design principles.

4 LONDON’S ECONOMY The London Plan July 2011 – RTF version 4.1 This chapter sets out policies to support delivery of the Mayor’s vision and objectives – particularly those to ensure that London is: • A city that meets the challenges of economic and population growth in ways that ensure a sustainable, good and improving quality of life and sufficient high quality homes and neighbourhoods for all Londoners, and help tackle the huge issue of deprivation and inequality among Londoners, including inequality in health outcomes; and • An internationally competitive and successful city with a strong and diverse economy and an entrepreneurial spirit that benefit all Londoners and all parts of London; a city that is at the leading edge of innovation and research, and which is comfortable with – and makes the most of – its rich heritage and cultural resources. These policies will support development and growth of London’s diverse economy over the years to 2031, enable it to contribute to the prosperity of the UK and provide Londoners with the goods, services and job opportunities they will need. 4.2 This chapter, which complements the Mayor’s Economic Development Strategy (EDS), deals with the needs of different sectors of the economy and their workspace requirements. It also provides a policy base for innovation, with support for new and emerging economic sectors and a ‘connected’ economy. Making sure all Londoners are able to share in their city’s success is a key priority, and this chapter deals with the contribution planning policy can make to improving opportunities for all Londoners.
