I recently carried out a survey asking how residents would like to see better use made of Ruthrieston Outdoor Sports Centre on Pitstruan Place.

Residents made a wide range of suggestions to me about how better use could be made of our local outdoor sports centre and I shared these with Sport Aberdeen, the organisation which manages the outdoor sports centre.

My colleague Martin Greig, councillor for the Ashley area, and I met with Sport Aberdeen recently and discussed with them residents’ comments and suggestions. Sport Aberdeen is keen to see more use made of the outdoor sports centre and have agreed to attend a community meeting so they can discuss first hand with residents how things could be taken forward.

Martin Greig and I have arranged this community meeting for 7.30pm on Thursday 23^rd February in the small hall at Holburn West Church, 9 Ashley Park Drive.

Please do come along to share your views and discuss how our community can make better use of our local outdoor sports centre.
