Background
The council has developed a Strategic Plan for Sport and Recreation to 2025 to ensure residents have access to a range of facilities that meet their needs, now and in the future. The Plan will assist the council and other providers of sport and recreation provision to effectively manage and develop facilities and activities over the coming few years. Its development has been informed by a range of consultation findings .
The Plan was endorsed by the Community Wellbeing Overview and Scrutiny Committee on 25 May 2011 and was adopted by Cabinet in July 2011. A copy of the Plan is available to download at the foot of this page.
The Plan is supported by a Schedule, also attached below, which sets out the actions to be delivered by relevant organisations over the coming 2 years and thereafter on a rolling 2 year basis. The Schedule was adopted by Cabinet at its meeting on 31 January.
There is also a range of supporting information that will help inform how different projects and schemes will be prioritised. It is important that this information is kept up to date. On this page you will shortly find a summary of all sports facilities, listed by ward, that the council is currently aware of; this will include an assessment of their condition and the local aspirations where known. There will also be a list of facilities by sport. A feedback form will allow you to tell us where data needs to be updated so decision making can be based on accurate information.
