Don’t take away our social area!!!!!

My family have been members of the community centre for many years, have used both the bar area & hall for functions & social visits. New years eve, Christmas & various other events held through the year.
It is a great assist to community, all ages, young to elderly.

Jodie Sivier (Burton Latimer , 2020-05-04)

We spend alot of time at the rec during the summer, we always pop in for drinks etc. Our football presentation events are also held at this venue, not forgetting parties and boxing events.

The social club has been there for many years. And it’s the hub of Burton Latimer elder generation. Don’t take it away from them.

Sharon Bettis (Corby, 2020-05-04)

Why get rid of it, so many people use it on different occasions! People off all ages, pop up for a drink and a few games of pool, the parents have a drink while waiting for the kids to come out the kids disco, the staged events, Christmas Day people meets for a drink before dinner there’s so much more! Why get rid of it.

I'm signing because this is an important part of Burton Latimer. Some people can't travel further into town to go to a pub for social gatherings

Karen May (Burton latimer, 2020-05-04)

This is a great place for gatherings and also best place for partys the older generation love to social here will be a very bad loss for the community

The community centre is a vital part of burton you can go for a quiet drink it’s also great for the regular footballers to go for a drink after the game . The main all is one of the best places to have party’s

Susan Hawkes (Finedon, Wellingborough, 2020-05-04)

I feel strongly about keeping the social place

Sean Smith (Corby , 2020-05-04)

It's a good venue to hold charity functions and a bar always helps.

This is a lovely clubhouse and venue which will be sorely missed by the local community

Linda Mcmeekin (Burton latimer, 2020-05-04)

This place is a great way to have a nice drink and meet people, also have great entertainment and the atmosphere is great, itbe a shame to get rid of this place, as I enjoy going there when kids finish playing in the park, nice place to relax, and unwind

Kate O'Neil (Northamptonshire, 2020-05-04)

This was my local growing up

Dylan Johnson (Kettering, 2020-05-04)

#39

We have as a family have had many enjoyable evenings there, at Birthday parties, our football club BPW use it for our awards ceremony and Christmas party. We went there for NYE, recently for a charity event and we also meet friends with their families there for a drink and catch up. It is as it says a Community centre and that’s what it should be with a bar.

Gina Cleverly (Burton Latimer, 2020-05-04)

#40

Its a fab facility for the community that me and my family regularly use.

Caroline Stephenson (Kettering, 2020-05-04)

#42

I regularly use the bar with my other family members who live in burton and the facility is at the heart of the community.

Simon Tapp (Northants, 2020-05-04)

#43

We need the bar to stay as it is used a great deal for all the functions that that take place at the centre eg weddings , funerals, parties, birthdays, dances, and the many social events organised by the fantastic staff. The residents of the whole town should have been consulted about what they want at the centre.

Jane Hulett (Burton Latimer, 2020-05-04)

#46

It’s a stupid idea

Lauren Taylor (Northamptonshire , 2020-05-04)

Its what burton needs. Ive used this many of times.

#49

The community centre the way it currently is, is part of the community. Its held so many social events, parties and other events. It needs to remain the same and mostly importantly keeps people in their jobs.

Jonathan Brassington (Burton latimer , 2020-05-04)

#50

It’s an awful idea

Ben Hicks (Burton Latimer , 2020-05-04)

#51

It's our local community space that should be saved.

Lauren Harmer (Kettering , 2020-05-04)

#52

It would be a shame to get rid of both of the bars as one is where the community comes together to socialise and the other where family & friends come together to celebrate. Both bars are equally important to the community of Burton Latimer.

Claire Redmond (Burton Latimer, 2020-05-04)

#53

Oh great take the heart out of our community. Another cost saving exercise by faceless people that don’t have a clue what this means to Burton 😡

Roy Twelvetree (Burton latimer, 2020-05-04)

#54

I often use the Community centre for a drink with fiends and it would be a great loss to the community

Peter Tapp (Kettering, 2020-05-04)

#55

We need a bar at this facility because it is used for weddings, funerals, and other family celebrations. It also serves as our local meeting place for social events, and I think that the loss of the bar will lead to a large decline in it's usage. Why have the people of the town not been consulted on this change .

Tim Hulett (Burton Latimer, 2020-05-04)

#56

This club provides a valuable service to local people and is safe ,clean and extremely good value for money ,it provides community support from celebrations to football teams and until recently a brilliant youth service for local youngsters .

Steven Fuller (Kettering, 2020-05-04)

#57

its a nice place to have a quiet drink plus its a great venue for party’s, would be a shame to lose it

Suart Bale (burton Latimer, 2020-05-04)

I have used the bar and rented the hall which I would not have done if it did not have a bar!

Stuart Reynolds (Burton Latimer, 2020-05-04)

The bar is needed for the community as a social hub

Tony Lewellen (Burton Latimer, 2020-05-04)

I feel this is at the heart of Burton Latimer a place for friends to meet and socialise over a drink. This would be such a shame for everyone losing a lovely bar /lounge

Sharon Dunn (Burton latimer, 2020-05-04)

#68

This is outragous it is a community centre for people to get together and have a drink and you want to take something else away from us 😪😪😪😥😥

Rose Winkle (Kettering, 2020-05-04)

This bar is used a lot by myself and friends as we go in there most Sundays after playing football at the rec.

Jordan Richards (Northamptonshire , 2020-05-04)

#72

I don't want to see this closed, it's a great place to hold parties.

Joanne Atkins (Northants, 2020-05-04)

#74

As manager of the football team up there the pub is classed as our club house and is a big part of why we play there. This will be a bad move in terms of promoting local sports. Without the bar there is no reason for us to stay as the pitch is awful but it is our home because of the local support from the pub.

Matt O'Connor (Burton latimer , 2020-05-04)

#75

It is one of our local and great space for parties

Sherree Hughes (Burton Latimer , 2020-05-04)

I want to go there yo drink and meet up with friends

Anita Rice (Burton Latimer, 2020-05-04)

#79

There is a lack of member facilities in the town that are reasonably priced, the older generation that drink there will lose a drinking area, we use this facility as members, so will lose the use of that for bingo nights, comedy nights, parties.

Scott Massie (Burton latimer, 2020-05-04)

It has a dart board!!

Paul Aguilar (burton latimer, 2020-05-04)

The community of burton and surrounding areas need this place to stay open once again Kettering council showing why they are one of the worst councils in Britain

Kane Lynch (Corby, 2020-05-04)

This is a massive part of our community many local people enjoy meeting up and enjoying social events.

Sarah Thomson (Burton Latimer , 2020-05-04)

Jacob Bryan (Burton Latimer , 2020-05-04)

#87

I grew up nearby and have been to many parties over the years there. It’s been a part of the wider community for as long as I can remember.

David Clark (Rushden, 2020-05-04)

#88

The community needs a social space where children are welcomed, they keep talking of community spirit being lost, of course it will be lost if there is nowhere to meet up and spend time together!!!

Julie Garrett (Northants, 2020-05-04)

It’s a community and for the sports teams

Luke Anderson (Burton Latimer , 2020-05-04)

Do not agree with Kettering Borough Council decision to remove the bar facilities and replace it with changing rooms which hardly get used.

Bob Cook (Burton Latimer, 2020-05-04)

Local resident who drinks at this bar

Cameron Tapp (Burton Latimer , 2020-05-04)

#95

There are lots of community events held at the community centre as well as being used by regular members. The removal of the bar would discourage use of the community centre and feel the money used in doing so could be better spent elsewhere within the community, I.e an astro football pitch, childrens play equipment

Dawn Brassington (Burton latimer , 2020-05-04)

#97

we lack social facilities such as this , much needed, Burton is great as it is don,t spoil it !

Sarah HM (Kettering , 2020-05-04)

#101

Great place to get together, for social drinks and great for functions for family parties and drinks after football so to take away the bars wouldn’t make sense and disregard many people who go and spend time there

Stephen Woods (Burton latimer, 2020-05-04)

i play pool at the Community centre.

Shean Osler (Kettering, 2020-05-04)

#105

It is a nice venue and a lot of people who live near the community centre use it for celebrations and has a great atmosphere

Clare Rouse (Raunds , 2020-05-04)

This is a valuable asset to the people of Burton Latimer and I don't understand the councils decision

Great social place to meet friends and family.

Lisa Dean (Kettering , 2020-05-04)

#108

We have used this community centre for decades for all kinds of different events, from charity discos to special birthdays and anniversaries, and all of these require the facilities of a bar. Ask the community first. After all it is our community centre!

Lucy Kerly (Burton Latimer, 2020-05-04)

#109

I'm a member and visit regualy it will be a massive loss if the social bar area is removed as its used by a wide variety of age groups

Tracey Pender (Burton latimer , 2020-05-04)

#110

I use the centre regularly it is a friendly and family club all year round a great place to play pool and relax

Ray Pender (Burton latimer, 2020-05-04)

#111

I feel that the bar is an important facility for the community. Many people go there to meet up with friends and neighbours. To some it is a lifeline. It is in the middle of the community enabling those in the vicinity to socialise in safety. It also encourages people to attend the many functions held at the community centre a lot of which are fundraising events for charities. The bar has been there for many many years and is very important.

Ann Machin (Burton Latimer, 2020-05-04)

#112

I drink there and I have a catch up and talking to my mums friends

Kirstylea Cox (Burton Latimer, 2020-05-04)

The should stay in the community centre. It shouldn’t be removed, they do an amazing job.

Katie Darbon (Kettering , 2020-05-04)

This is socially important

Michelle Slater (Kettering , 2020-05-04)

It's a function hall ....it needs a bar....good for socializing

Sue Hill (Burton Latimer, 2020-05-04)

#121

The closing of the community centre will have a direct impact on a lot of people that would not meet up or be able to socialise with out it

Edward Holt (BurtonLatimer , 2020-05-04)

#122

As a member of this community centre I do not want to loose the current facilities just so that the KBC can recreate it into an unwanted changing room.

Richard Rowlands (Kettering, 2020-05-04)

#123

It's for the community to gather

Matthew Bryan (Burton latimer , 2020-05-04)

Shane Martin (Kettering , 2020-05-04)

#131

I am signing because the social aspects are to be reduced and no regard to keep the members of this community centre happy.To disregard the present day users of the centre is totally wrong

York Grahame (Burton Latmer, 2020-05-04)

#132

The worst possible idea will be to take this all away! Childhood memories from this venue and area! And currently using it to do this for socialising with family and friends!

Jordan Rowlands (Burton Latimer , 2020-05-04)

#133

As it’s my local and had lots of party’s up there friendly staff would be a shame to lose it

It makes sense for a community centre to have a bar, and its a asset to the area and the community tax payers.

James Strudwick (Burton latimer, 2020-05-04)

It's a lovely bar, the only one within decent walking distance this end of town.

Terry West (Burton Latimer , 2020-05-04)

This is needed

Larraine Andrews (Kettering , 2020-05-04)

#141

It’s for the community to go and enjoy a social night out

Brian Martin (Burton Latimer , 2020-05-04)

#142

I strongly object to the removal of the bar facilities at our community centre, changing rooms will be for selected users, a bar is for the community and goes hand in hand with the function room.

Alison Loasby (Burton Latimer , 2020-05-04)

#143

I am part of the pool team and this is our venue to play our home matches. Always a great evening win lose or draw. Keep it open.

Jason Mills (Corby, 2020-05-04)

Brad Wilson (Burton latimer , 2020-05-04)

Christopher Randall (Burton Latimer , 2020-05-04)

#150

The bar is a big part of the community, and for some people, it is the only place they have the chance to socialse. Losing the bar and lounge will deprive many people in the community and it will put people out of work.

Lisa Johnson (Kettering , 2020-05-04)

#151

This should be a community centre for the community not just footballers... I’ve always attended events here for the 32 years I’ve lived in Burton Latimer... it would loose the community spirit to remove the bars etc

Charlotte Kirk (Burton Latimer , 2020-05-04)

#152

No point having a community centre without a bar, no one will book for private parties , also no entertainment, comedy evening's and groups etc.

Chris Freeman (Burton latimer , 2020-05-04)

#153

I feel the community center should be for everyone in the community and by getting rid of the bar, this will deminish the community as less people will use the center

Alex Kirk (Burton Latimer, 2020-05-04)

#154

I use this bar and the function room regularly

Elliot Hanney (Burton Latimer , 2020-05-04)

This is my favourite place in Burton to go for a drink. I've been coming here for years and it's a lovely bar with lovely staff and great friends. I have lots of great memories of the community centre.

Barry Dunn (Kettering, 2020-05-04)

#157

A bar is needed for functions and as one is already there it should be put back.

Hayley Kirk (THRAPSTON , 2020-05-04)

This is the place we go for the Burton Rock N Roll club also a great place for friends to meet and have a drink with these difficult times this place needs to stay open.

We havn’t been members long and enjoy going to the quiz nights and having a drink

Ros Sharman (Burton latimer, 2020-05-04)

#162

The community centre has been used for years as a community centre and is a hub for the community to meet, celebrate party's, weddings, christenings and Christmas and new year celebrations. The bar is also used as a meeting point for several age groups in the community and especially retirees who have lost partners use the space to meet friends and socialise, if this were to go they would not have this contact.

Tracey Hughes (Burton Latimer, 2020-05-04)

#163

It's a fun rock n roll venue enhanced by being able to have a social drink from the bar

Ozzy Taylor (Kettering, 2020-05-04)

#167

This is a great family community centre that get used by many, it's a great asset to the community and offers all sorts of entertainment for all ages, we need to keep the community centre and the bar for the community and the entertainment that it provides and not put people out of jobs and take away the only real place in burton latimer where families are welcomed with open arms.

Darryn Sivier (Burton latimer, 2020-05-04)

#168

I've been to many parties here and would be so sad not to have the drink facilities it has at present. It will loose a lot of trade from functions.

Karen Prowse (Kettering , 2020-05-04)

#176

We use this facility. We had our wedding reception here and it is a great asset. No need for more changing rooms. All else fails, give them a porta cabin.

David Loyd-Hearn (Burton Latimer , 2020-05-04)

#177

If this was to go then you’d be leaving people in our Cummings jobless which they’re worked very hard to keep us as a great community together. Stick together stay together.

A function room / community centre without a Bar is ludicrous how can it be viable no one will want to hire it so the money spent wil be wasted

Alan Thurlow (Burton Latimer , 2020-05-04)

My husband uses the bar and it seems such a shame that he will no longer be able to go.

Kirstie Stevens (Burton Latimer, 2020-05-04)

It would be a mistake to get rid of the bar space

Claire Warne (Isham, 2020-05-05)

I don’t understand why bar facilities would be removed from a place where functions are held.

Kirsty Sloan (Burton Latimer , 2020-05-05)

#185

I dont agree with closing the community centre. We use the centre most weeks to meet up with friends. It is in the heart of our community with very friendly staff who are always inviting. They put on alot of social events for the local community to get people together it would be really disappointing to close it.

Rachael Dickens (Burton Latimer , 2020-05-05)

Plans look like they are changing this from a facility for the community into a football club

Michelle Lingwood (Burton Latimer, 2020-05-05)

The bar/lounge in the community centre is not just used for social drinking but used for parties etc if the bar is removed then no one will use it for these events and will be a huge blow to the community.

This is a place where people meet and relax. There is a community that use this place. Would be unfair to take that away.
