Leisure centre under spotlight

ANYONE with an opinion about the quality or condition of leisure facilities at Stratford Park is being encouraged to let the council know, ahead of a crunch meeting on its future.

Stroud District Council has launched a scrutiny inquiry in to the service provided at the leisure centre and outdoor sports facilities

The council would also like to know why people do not use the centre and what facilities might attract them.

In addition, individuals and clubs are to be canvassed for their views, as are staff who work there.

The findings will be presented to SDC scrutiny committee in November, when it will be decided whether or not the Stratford Park services meet council tax payers' expectations.

A deadline of Friday, September 21 has been set for views to be sent to the council at Ebley Mill, Westward Road, Stroud, GL5 4UB.
