Your Local Leisure Centre; Have Your Say!
The South Northamptonshire Leisure Trust started to operate in February 2007. The main initial purpose of the Trust was to
operate the contract that embraces Towcester Centre for Leisure, Brackley Leisure Centre and Brackley Swimming Pool but
with a wider brief for sport and leisure in the South Northamptonshire area.
As you can see it’s more than being about swimming pools and gyms and the centres are dedicated to helping to enhance
health and fitness as well as just general enjoyment.
The focus is giving you what you want. We don’t always get it right first time but we persevere to constantly improve things.
With that in mind, we would be delighted if you would take a moment of your time to complete the questionnaire below and
return to either your chosen centre, or drop it in to Towcester Tea Rooms, 169 Watling Street, Towcester; or email to
admintowcester@leisure.serco.com. The closing date for all completed questionnaires is 30 th September 09.
