Yesterday I led a debate on behalf of residents in Stoke-on-Trent North, Kidsgrove and Talke, over the refurbishment and reopening of Kidsgrove Sports Centre.
I was grateful to the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Sport, Heritage and Tourism, Nigel Huddleston MP, for hearing the reason why it’s vitally important we in Kidsgrove and Talke, get our heart back in the community.
It was a honour to raise awareness of the Trustee’s of Kidsgrove Sports Centre Community Group who without, we wouldn’t be a close as we are to seeing our Sports Centre back.
I also thanked Cllr Simon Tagg, Leader of Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council, who made Kidsgrove Sports Centre a top priority since becoming leader.
We will now all work together, alongside the government and Sport England, to have a long term plan and vision to see Kidsgrove Sports Centre return for the long term.
