Dear Sir, I am writing

this

letter to oppose closing a sports and leisure

centre

. I believe that there is plenty of benefit for people around here. To start with, my family and I often go to the

centre

like five times a week. Regarding

this

,

this

is the place where we can do some activities together,

for instance

, playing badminton, jogging or even having a picnic.

This

leisure

centre

is essential to our community, to keep everyone in touch and to get to know each other better.

Furthermore

, I have met lots of friends here, so we can share our problems, help each other or encourage them in a hard time. Closing the

centre

might cause negative consequences to us,

such

as lacking exercise or lacking communication between people here which could not only cause a physical health but

also

mental health. I hope you consider the statement before making a decision. I look forward to your response. Yours Faithfully, X
