QUESTION NO. 1

QUESTION: Councillor David McManus

To ask the Chief Executive for an update on the provision of fitness classes for senior citizens at Ballyroan Community & Youth Centre as they appear to have ended, perhaps due to COVID restrictions, and if they will start again?

REPLY:

The Sports Partnership is supporting classes in this centre and can give an update to the Councillor directly as required. There is a new Manager recently in post and the Community team are available to support the Manager over the coming months with sports and fitness advice and resources.  Local centre management are responsible for all timetables and room usage policies.

The sports team in SDCC are always keen to support community centre to maximise usage potential and are also currently working with centres directly to develop an online booking system to encourage efficient utilistation of all buildings across the county.
