The review is being undertaken in phases and the first phase will develop a vision for sport and leisure services across North Yorkshire.
We want to refocus our leisure services to better support the physical and mental well-being of individuals and communities and to make it easier for everyone to be active. In particular we want to focus on:
- increasing participation in physical activity for people of all ages
- how we can better meet the needs of urban and rural populations
- areas of greatest need and reducing health inequalities
- improving value for money and the sustainability of our leisure facilities
- improving the energy efficiency of our facilities and reducing carbon emissions
- providing fulfilling and rewarding career opportunities
- how we can extend our services beyond leisure centres and develop outreach services
- how we can better work in partnership with community sports groups and other partners
