Rejected petition Highlight that Sir Matt Busby Sports Complex is being considered for closure.

We would like you to consider alternative options other than closure of the centre.

More details

This bustling centre has become the heart of our community, offering a wide range of amenities including a pool, gym, fitness classes and more. It also serves as a home to numerous clubs like Bellshill Sharks ASC, dance schools, football teams, diving clubs, taekwondo and kendo clubs. It’s where countless individuals learn to swim, a life-saving skill.
The closure of Sir Matt Busby Leisure Centre would have a devastating impact on the well-being, health, and sense of community in our area.
