An extraordinary meeting of the South Kesteven District Council will be held later today to discuss the future of Deepings Leisure Centre, following its closure in July.
The future of Deepings’ Leisure Centre, which was closed in July for safety reasons after heavy rain, is being discussed this afternoon in an extraordinary meeting of South Kesteven District Council Cabinet.
A petition of well over 6500 signatures is calling for urgent repairs to the building to be carried out as soon as possible and firm plans for a new facility to be built by 2025.
Independent councillor for Market and West Deeping, Ashley Baxter, uses the facility along with his family. He says that a leisure centre on the doorstep is vital for the community:
“My daughter is a swimmer with the Deepings Swimming Club, along with hundreds of other young people and they now have nowhere to swim” says Ashley “It presents a massive problem for families all over.”
