101 h menziesHow can leisure centres possibly be community services if those who have children are excluded from using them. Health of parents needs to be encouraged and supported

109 Samantha HardieThis is clearly an equalities issue. Women cannot participate fully in society without childcare support. This support is also beneficial to children who are learn to socialise well in creches

111 AnonymousThe creche at the commonwealth pool has been a great resource for my family. It will be sorely missed. So much for supporting healthy living and family life.
112 Lorraine RuthvenThese creches are a lifeline for some parents, shame on the Council.
113 AnonymousOh the irony! On the one hand we are a nation of fatties,on the other the council is making it impossible for a large number of folk to stay in shape. Will the money they save be used to fund gastric bypasses on the NHS??
114 RACHAEL MACLEODThese places are life lines for those of us with babies and young children and limited money. Childcare costs a fortune in Edinburgh and considering the "obesity epidemic" Scotland supposedly suffers from it seems ridiculous the council would do something that will stop a HUGE number of people being able to access a gym....

126 AnonymousHow can Edinburgh Leisure spend so much money on promoting themselves (including giving away ipod nanos) when they are preventing a large percentage of the community from using their facilities.

128 George FoulkesYou have my full support
129 AnonymousIn order to tackle the health problems in Scotland you should be encouraging parents (and their children) to be partaking in sports, not the opposite.

133 Kelly Curran Cooteas a soon-to-be mum myself, I feel uttterly disappointed that the council has decided to axe such a vital service. I would have definitely made use of the chreche services, and think it is a real shame to see another priority binned.
