Dear Sir, My name is Kulwinder Kaur and I am residing near Scarborough Town
Centre
. I am writing
this
letter to express my deep concern for shutting down our local sports and leisure
centre
called "Be Healthier". Since 2016, when my family and I moved to
this
area, using
this
facility to keep ourselves healthy because it has a variety of gym equipment
as well as
there is a facility of swimming pool. Not only
this
but it
also
has a basketball court where all my friends do their practice for their basketball match. Despite the fact that people are occupied with numerous things dealing with their workloads and family issues the
centre
indeed acts as a medium of relief and happiness where they can spend their quality time with themselves and lead a healthier lifestyle.
However
, shutting down
this
centre
will affect the local community in numerous ways
such
as a lack of physical activities and the development of health conditions.
In addition
to
this
, it is
also
very inconvenient and expensive to use paid community centres. Looking forward to hearing a positive reply to
this
concern. Yours sincerely, Kulwinder Kaur
