After Development Plans for Gurnell Leisure Centre Were Thrown Out, Residents are Now Demanding the Current Centre Should Re-open
Ealing Council closed Gurnell Leisure Centre over a year ago in response to Covid-19. The Council was so confident that Councillors would approve the centre being demolished, it stated in July 2020 that the current centre would never re-open. The Council’s Planning Committee rejected demolition/development plans at Gurnell on 17 March 2021. Ever since then residents have demanded the current centre should be re-opened. A petition has been set up supporting the re-opening. You can add your name to it here.

We’ve always done that and won’t be changing, in fact we’d like to do more. However, the readership that these stories generates is often below that needed to cover the cost of producing them.

One-off donations are also appreciated. Choose The Amount You Wish To Contribute.
