SYSTON DARTS LEAGUE CELEBRATE 75 YEARS

Charnwood Borough Council is undertaking a retendering project for the management and operation of its three leisure centres:

*     Loughborough Leisure Centre
*     Soar Valley Leisure Centre in Mountsorrel
*     South Charnwood Leisure Centre in Syston

It is seeking members of the community, both users and non users, of the leisure centres to form a Community Reference Panel that will act as a “sounding board” to give guidance and vital input into the re-letting of the contract.
The Community Reference Panel requires 12 volunteers who will reflect diverse age, gender, ethnicity, users of each centre and non users from the local community. The Panel will meet on Wednesday 11 August 2010 from 5.30pm to 8.00pm at the Council Offices in Loughborough and will also meet again at some point in 2011.
Councillor Peter Lewis, Lead member for Leisure and Culture for Charnwood Borough Council, said: “Public consultation in everything the council does is vitally important. I invite users and non users of our centres to come forward to influence and help shape the way we deliver this service in the future. Only team work from everyone will achieve the best results.”
If you have a view on what makes good leisure centre provision; can identify what’s important to include in the new contract and help guide on priorities in evaluating the tenders, please contact Kevin Stanley on 01509 634593 or email kevin.stanley@charnwood.gov.uk by Friday 30 July 2010.
