THREE leisure centres to shut within months in one Greater Manchester borough

Three leisure centres are to close within months in Tameside after the trust which runs them says its finances have been ‘ravaged’.

Active Tameside, which operates all the swimming pools and leisure centres in the borough, has today (Monday, July 3) announced the closure of three of its sites as it tries to remain viable.

The trust, which is a registered charity, has confirmed that Active Ashton, Adventure Longdendale and Active Etherow will shut in early September. Active Ashton has two swimming pools and a gym, Adventure Longdendale contains a trampoline park, laser zone and soft play area for children, and Active Etherow is the trust’s dedicated indoor bowling centre.
