Your local council is considering closing a sports and leisure centre that it runs, in order to save money. Write a letter to the local council.In your letter • give details of how you and your friends or family use the centre • explain why the sports and leisure Centre is important for the local community • describe the possible effects on local people if the centre closes
Dear Sir,
I am quite disgruntled after reading the notice related to the closedown of Anytime Fitness Club. My friends and I visit the club every day either for the gym or to play on the basketball court.
Furthermore
, I even come to the library occasionally to complete my assignments because it offers me a peaceful environment.
However
, this
club play a vital role in the lives of all community members because I saw various old people walking on the race track during the evening. Furthermore
, there are various other sports as well that teenager do very interestingly during the afternoon to relax their mind. Moreover
, the ladies of the town come here to discuss their important or not-so-important issues during their leisure time.
This
leisure centre is relentlessly necessary for all age groups. If it closes down, it would have disruptive repercussions on the physical health as well as
mental health of humans. Furthermore
, learners who use the library would face trouble finding another peaceful place. Therefore
, we do not want it to shut down.
I hope you take my view into consideration.
Yours sincerely,
