Your District Council is working hard to build a better Bromsgrove. An important part of this is a review of Leisure Facilities. Bromsgrove residents have already played a part in helping the District Council provide leisure facilities that meet your needs. As a result of listening to your views we recently provided a new Multi-Use Games Area in Sanders Park and a state of the art gym in the Dolphin Centre, where Membership rates remained competitive so everyone could hit the gym, without being hit in the pocket. Through consultation, you also told us that providing leisure activities is important to you - and to help us improve these, we want to hear from you again. We know you value leisure facilities, and by letting us know where and how you access them, we can build up a picture of what future improvements are required. As always we need to balance ideas for improvement against the cost of providing them, so we are also asking you to think about value for money.

By spending a few minutes to fill in this questionnaire, you can help shape the future of Leisure Services in your area. We do listen. We do need your views. You can make a difference.
