SPORT & RECREATION
There has been an increase in
participation in sport and recreation due mainly to people having
more leisure time with flexible and part-time working hours. There
is a realisation of the benefits and enjoyment to be gained from a
fit and healthy lifestyle. There is a need, therefore, to
accommodate this increase in demand and to facilitate new provision.
The demand is for both formal recreational facilities, such as
playing fields, sports halls and golf courses and more informal
activities such as walking, riding or simply enjoying the
countryside.
