Childcare to continue at Tandridge Leisure Centre

Following concerns expressed by local residents that the Crèche at the Tandridge Leisure Centre would close, Tandridge Leisure Limited (TLL) has confirmed that it to continue to provide some childcare service at the Leisure Centre by targeting the most popular times for customers requiring this service.

TLL is looking to make the best use of the crèche space, which has been operating at just over a third of capacity for some time. TLL do not think this is sustainable. Their decision to focus the crèche on times pf peak demand this will enable the Centre to extend its services to the public by also using the space for other activities such as additional group exercise classes, as a training venue and for private hire.

While it is clearly disappointing for Crèche users that Tandridge Leisure has decided to restrict the times that childcare will be available, it is good that they have recognised that there is a continuing need for to provide a facility.
