The site of the new "state-of-the-art" wellbeing hub has been agreed following Thursday's council meeting.
Clackmannanshire’s new Wellbeing Hub will be located at The Pavilion, Alloa.
The decision was made at today’s council meeting.
The local authority has committed to invest in a state-of-the-art Wellbeing Hub, including a swimming pool.
It's said the facility 'will be part of a wider network connecting facilities and providers of sport, physical activity and wellbeing programmes across Clackmannanshire.'
Depute Leader of the Council, Graham Lindsay said: “The Wellbeing Hub is such an exciting project that I know everyone will want to get behind. It is so important that we no longer look back, but look forward with innovation and real ambition for Clackmannanshire." “The Administration want to take forward development that delivers an optimal facilities mix, as we will not aspire to anything less for the people of Clackmannanshire. However, there are clear ongoing revenue benefits to maximising the activities delivered within the Wellbeing Hub. I am pleased all Councillors shared the Administration’s aspiration of an optimal facility." “The most important aspect that has been critical to our decision is wider strategic context for the Council, including forthcoming plans for a joint development with Lochies and the potential for future development within the site”.
