Xmas Cheer - New Fitness Facilities in Underwood Closer

Published: 06 December 2017

The Council is delighted to learn that Active Underwood are hopefully in the closing phase of fundraising for the extension to our Community Centre which will house exercise and fitness facilities which will benefit the whole community, and help compensate for the closure of the NCC Leisure Centre. The Community Council already provides equipment and rooms for the existing Active Underwood gym. We have backed this project from the outset by promising a home for the new facility on our land and attaching it to the Underwood Community Centre. We provided guarantees and written support at the crucial stages. The Council will also help in the final phase of identifying donor support for the remaining £30,000 needed to finance the extension. The Council hopes to see building work on the extension start in the New Year !
