Residents are being asked to have their say on the futures of leisure centres in Carlton.
Gedling Borough Council has said two of their leisure centres are ‘costly to maintain’.
People are being invited to their say onthe futures of Carlton Forum Leisure Centre and Richard Herrod Centre
A spokesman said:”Our leisure centres are increasingly costly to maintain and require modernisation to meet the current and future needs of our residents.
“This presents an opportunity to move away from outdated infrastructure and invest in modern, efficient, community-focused facilities that better support the health, wellbeing and connectedness of our residents.
“The Leisure Transformation consultation focuses on the proposal to redefine the leisure offer in the Carlton area from the current Carlton Forum Leisure Centre and Richard Herrod Centre into a new, combined, purpose-built Carlton Leisure, Wellbeing and Community Centre on the Richard Herrod site. This new centre is envisioned as a vibrant, welcoming destination that would bring together leisure, health and community services under one roof. “

Here’s what they will do. 1) Rebuild Richard Herrod and demolish Carlton Forum. 2) Cause utter chaos for puils at Calton Academy. 3) Sell the Carlton Forum car park to build houses, causing futher chaos for parents dropping off and collecting their children from the school. 4) Spend any cost savings on Arnold.
Three cheers for Arnold
Culose them and move money to Arnold. Our London our capital
Another pond life remark from Arnold Lad
No it is true. why waist money elsewhere when only one of our towns is popular and people want to visit Does carlton have a massive summer fair? No but we do and reason for that it is a town people want to visit
Oh yes! Such a lovely place Arnold Lad. Explain then why Police enforced a dispersal order in the town centre over the weekend, Bet that attracted more tourists.
Well Arnold had b****r all until they moved the Council offices to Arnot Park. The Gedling Show was in Carlton, Carlton Square had a huge Christmas tree in front of the old offices. And what of Arnold now???? Souring crime that needs special measures, yeah , nice. Afnold is certainly nothing special but rows of charity shops and a £3 million waste of space and now you want another 50 million? Nah, you need to take the beam out of your own back yard before the splinter from someone else’s. As for Carlton Forum? Was always councils intention to shut it down to save money. And £220000 won’t buy diddly squat sports facilities for the former Wheldon School will it. Won’t exactly buy, Squash courts, badminton courts, basketball courts ball, swimming pool and everything else it currently provides the pupils with, I used every one of them in my time at the school. GBC, useless, utterly useless.
Good comment Duane, can’t even venture into Front Street at night, one of the most unsafe places around unfortunately, I bet Arnold Lad doesn’t even venture out as he’s pathetically stuck behind his keyboard, bored with nothing to do lol
I can only pray our glorius benefactors will use their fine wisdom to, as others have suggested, close them both down and send all the money where it is least needed, Arnold.
People are starting to realize the money is needed to improve Arnold our capital our London. Has any other town got WHSmiths no. A Greggs no. A big Asda no.
My God Arnold Lad. Bore off. Your town that you describe as a ‘tourist destination ‘ is an abomination! Not safe at night down to hoodie chavs and even police believe is a ‘no-go area’. I bet you never leave your computer and venture in to town due to being on here, playing World of Warcraft or watching….stuff.
Maybe you should bore off bardolph. If that is where you live then all you have is a Aldi and a popeyes and so what maybe do some tours of your sewage works to attract tourists ha
Close one down and use the cash to build a new mental asylum as obviously a gap in the market to accommodate Arnold Lad and his weird our capital; our London objectives.
You are the mental one if you think there are better towns around here. McDonald’s check B&M check WH Smith’s check Big Asda check Weatherspoon check Greggs check. Big brands and a big town that you are jelous about. Carlton charity shops check. That is the end of the list ha
I find it hilarious that you assume I live in Carlton – maybe I’m an ‘Arnold ‘lad but just have enough intelligence to realise it’s not a capital or London but instead a c**phole
No way are you from Arnold as you wood have more respect for this town. People who live in this town love this town and I talk to them every day and they no the rest of the area is rubbish and that this town can save the area. Our park is magnificant and so is the town centre like the AMP and Greggs and McDonalds and B&M and a big Asda. Why waist money elsewhere when we can make this capital the pride of Nottingham. Biron should be buried hear and not hucknall
Oh Arnold Lad. I’m tired and going to bed. Some of us have jobs! Can’t stop laughing! You want Byron brought to Arnold and buried?! Let’s get Jim Morrison and Elvis too!!! Dude!
Byron buried in Arnold?! This is my favourite yet! Mr Mad from Madsville in Madtown is less mad than you!!!
Laugh all you like it is my belief and will call for it as Newsted abbey is part of Gedling and the capital of Gedling is Arnold so he should be buried heir as nothing to do with hucknall and people I talk to do not want to go to Hucknall so bring him here and berry him in Arnold town centre. It is not a stupid idea as will bring torists and we can have a biron shop and this will make money so their our capital our London
Let’s go dig him up then! Hi ho, Hi ho, it’s off to dig Byron up we go
Arnold Lad you really are the most boring, dissalusional waste of space i think I have ever encountered, you really do need to come from behind your keyboard, leave your dark room & get a life, people just see you as a bit of a joke to be honest, give my regards to all of your friends on Pluto lol.
