Council leisure centres to be run by external management company
Chichester District Council’s leisure centres in Southbourne, Chichester and Midhurst will be managed differently from May.
Cllr Gillian Keegan, in charge of economy in Chichester district, said: ‘We are incredibly proud of our leisure services and so for us this review was about how we can continue to deliver them at the high standard they are now.

‘This will not only protect our leisure services, which we know play an important role within our local communities, but it will also help to protect other council services.’
Further information on the successful contractor will be released next month.
