Conclusion<br />
In 2010/11, we have made a number of improvements in <strong>Selby</strong>, ensuring that <strong>Selby</strong><br />
<strong>District</strong> residents receive high quality sport and leisure facilities. Having spent over<br />
£1.1m on the facilities at Abbey Leisure Centre the facilities in <strong>Selby</strong> are without doubt<br />
unrivalled in the area. Use of the health and fitness suite, continues to grow beyond<br />
expectation now boasting over 2700 gym members.<br />
However, there still remain a number of challenges ahead to develop the service, which<br />
include:<br />
• Developing a more comprehensive range of special events to help increase use<br />
and revenue from the catering and bar areas at Abbey Leisure Centre<br />
• Development of a strong performance culture across the teams at Abbey Leisure<br />
Centre and Tadcaster Leisure Centre<br />
• Strengthening the health and fitness offer at Tadcaster Leisure Centre<br />
• Developing a robust learn to swim programme with clear club/competitive<br />
swimming links<br />
• Improving the effectiveness of data capture<br />
In order to measure our services, we will continue to benchmark both locally and<br />
nationally against other providers to ensure that we are competitive, taking areas of<br />
good practice and implementing them within <strong>Selby</strong>. We will continue to work closely<br />
with <strong>Selby</strong> <strong>District</strong> <strong>Council</strong> to make sure that services contribute to the Living Well<br />
theme and the wider aspirations of the <strong>Council</strong>. This will be made possible by<br />
continuing to broaden the range of sport and leisure activities available to district<br />
residents.<br />
