Halt the closure of a well-used public and community sports hub!

This community gym is the last of a dying breed. The family-like nature of the gym is unique to any other gym nowadays. It helps to keep a level of community spirit alive. Its membership includes a diverse range of individuals which train at it and this helps create and maintain healthy relationships within the community. Taking the gym away will leave the community of Langloan with nothing. The west end park doesn't get used to the maximum of its potential, the community centre has been closed down and now the gym. There will be zero incentives to keep our young ones off the streets. As a young adult the local gym provides me with an opportunity to keep fit, socialise with locals and also provides an alternative to socialising through alcohol.
I feel the people who make these decisions are out of touch with the wants and needs of the community.
