The college of West Anglia are proposing to close the gym facility on Kings Lynn Campus and longterm the sports centre losing the sports hall as an indoor venue. With the impending closure of Providence Youth Centre, the town of Kings Lynn will be limited to the Council run facility at Lynnsport only for sporting events. As the Government are promoting Fitness and Healthy Living and trying to prevent Childhood Obesity particularly in the build up to the Olympics, this seems to be very short sighted. This closure will prevent students having easy access to a fitness suite whilst studing, many of those students will use the gym as part of their fitness campaign in readiness for joining the Services.

Seeing this kind of energy for the gym is overwhelming because I know exactly how much this facility means to the students who need it for their training. It confirms that I am not the only one who sees this shortsighted decision for the mistake it truly is.

KINGS LYNN NEEDS THIS. We already lost the youth centre so what are the kids supposed to do now? Stop being so cheap.

Honestly PULSE8 is the only decent gym around here. Super convenient for students. Keep it open.

Trying to get into the military and using the gym is part of my daily routine. This is total bs.

Too many cuts in this town already. Leave the sports centre alone.

My son uses this gym all the time for his training. Taking this away is just plain wrong.

This is ridiculous. The gym is the only place some of us can actually train between classes. Dont close it down.
