The Leisure Services Department is keen for people to see the breadth and variety of leisure facilities in the borough. Did you know the team manage the borough’s five leisure centres, seven community centres, 32 parks, open spaces and cemeteries? Officers promote health and fitness, sports development, tourism, twinning and organises arts and events with and for the community.
We recognise the important role that can be played by the provision of sports and leisure activities, improving health and enhancing the quality of life of residents and visitors to the Gedling Borough area.
In May 2006 a Play Visioning event was held in Gedling and was attended by some 20 representatives of various organisations involved in or responsible for play across the Borough. At that event it was agreed that the Gedling Play Partnership would be developed and the Partnership had it’s inaugural meeting in June 2006, since that time the Partnership has met on a regular basis to progress the Play Strategy entitled ‘Making Play Matter in Gedling'
In March 2007 the Gedling Play Partnership submitted a bid to the Big Lottery Funds (BLF) Children's Play Programme seeking funding to deliver a portfolio of projects to improve play opportunities across the Borough. BLF awarded the Gedling area with a grant of £219,586, to fund all four projects submitted in the portfolio.
The portfolio consists of four projects developed by members of the play partnership. Three of the projects involve the expansion and refurbishment of outdoor play spaces within the Borough, the fourth project will provide outreach play workers to deliver a range of quality, inclusive, supervised play opportunities in community settings.
