Leicester-Shire & Rutland Sport would fully support the need for enhancing spaces and this element of the local plan. However we would also further promote ambitions to ensure that new developments are enhanced, through increased sport and recreation provision. We would support the ambition for enhanced and increased green infrastructure networks not only for recreational purposes but also for active travel, to and from work etc to provide opportunities for Harborough residents to be physically active and lead healthy lifestyles. Deign Guidance can be found via Sport England website

8.3.1 to 8.3.2 Explanation

Respondent: Leicestershire & Rutland Sport
Given the rural nature and scale of Harborough District, Leicesters-Shire & Rutland Sport would support the importance placed on community facilities, specifically as places for Harborough residents to be physically active. Longer drive times to larger leisure facilities in Harborough places even more significance on provision of high quality, accessible local facilities.

Leicester-Shire & Rutland Sport would support this principle. We would also extend this to consider all facilities and spaces that can accommodate physical activity and sport, including school sites. New schools should consider both design that reflects need for community access, as well as Community Use Agreements (CUAs) to ensure that these facilities remain available for public use out of school hours, allowing more opportunities for Harborough residents to be physically active.
