Lockswood Community Centre to close?

The future of the Locks Heath community centre is looking uncertain and is set to be decided by Fareham Borough Council on Monday 1st October.

The centre is currently used by local parent and toddler groups, pre-school groups, senior citizen's clubs and for sporting activities. We have probably all passed through its doors at some time!

The Lockswood Library and a coffee shop run by volunteers will also be lost, which is currently a meeting place for people living in the local community.

Have you, or do you visit the Community Centre?
How would its closure affect you?

Have your say now....

I have lived in this area for 9 yrs now and have always fely very lucky that to have an area as Locksheath shopping centre on my doorstep. I have used this centre all this time for mother and baby classes (with my grandson), yoga classes, pilates classes,gymtots (with my grandson), french classes and the all important library.The availability of all this under one roof has been fantastic and I cannot understand what the reason could be for closure!! Where would all these classes go? Where would the library go, and would another be of the same standard? This community centre is critical for the success of this shopping area, without it it is just a few shops and an out of the way petrol station; trade would gradually go down. What would we do with the building?Not more competition for the brave retailers already there surely!
