Rossett Sports Centre Future Concerns

Michelle writes: Yesterday, Jim and I became aware of Harrogate Borough Council's proposals to discontinue the operational management of Rossett Sports Centre in order to generate efficiency savings for 2012. If this were to happen, the running of the sports centre would have to taken over by an other organisation, such as a school, a community group or a private company. At this stage, it is still a proposal, however to all of us in the Rossett Ward and across Harrogate, it's both shocking and inconceivable that these facilities could be in jeopardy.

Jim and I will be fighting to keep funding from HBC for Rossett Sports Centre and we want you to share your views. Please post your thoughts and comments on this. How do you use Rossett Sports Centre? What does it mean for you as a facility? What do you think of the council's proposals to withdraw funding?
We will keep you updated on any new developments.
