00:00Swimmers have staged a protest over the loss of Leeds' only licensed open water swimming spot.
00:07Around 25 people entered Leeds Dock despite warnings not to swim there.
00:12The supervised sessions were run by Love Open Water, with lifeguards and water quality checks.
00:18But the agreement has not been renewed after the leaseholder entered administration.
00:24Administrators Interpath say continuing the swimming is no longer viable under the current circumstances, with health and safety a priority.
00:32Protesters say the sessions were popular and want swimming restored.
00:37Leeds City Council says it has no control over the privately owned site, but is open to discussions with its
00:43owner.
