One of the options considered for this recently refurbished facility is its complete closure as it's not compulsory for Cheltenham Borough Council to provide leisure facilities for the town.
There have been suggestions for building a completely new facility outside the boundaries of Cheltenham, which would be on much grander scale, however reinstating the centre as it was or with some cuts to its facilities is also considered as in case of closure the council would have to pay back some of the Lottery Sport Fund money they received for its refurbishment in 2003.
The leisure centre had 1,600 members and 650,000 visitors a year and has been closed since the July floods. How do you feel about the future of Cheltenham Leisure Centre?
I think this centre should stay open.
ReplyDeleteIf it moves out of town then the only people who will be able to use it is people with cars.
If it stays where it is, then youngsters, walkers and bicyclists can use the facilities too.

Temporary fitness suite located at the side of the main centre has now been officially open. It contains a thirty piece gym and a dance studio, offering classes such as body pump, pilates, body conditioning and yoga.
