Medway Local Plan (Regulation 18, 2023)

Representation ID: 1188

Received: 30/10/2023

Respondent: Mr Stephen Hesketh

Representation Summary:

Local and central government talk about helping people to lead healthy lives, but this is not supported by their actions. Policies at Council Leisure Centres have changed such that costs have increased and opening times reduced. The provision of sport across the area is poor and this is reflected by the health of the community. Obesity is a massive and 'increasing' issue with the result that there are massive costs on local and central heath provision.
Deangate Ridge needs to be developed with provision for walking and trail running.
