‘New leisure centre will be a great asset for community’ – McKevitt

SDLP spokesperson for Culture, Arts and Leisure Karen McKevitt MLA recently visited the leisure centre currently under construction at Jennings Park, Newry.

Speaking to Newry Times, McKevitt said, “This new state of the art sports facility will be a great asset to the people of Newry and Mourne and the wider surrounding areas.

“I enjoyed a tour of the centre recently and I am very excited about the benefits that it will bring to the community.

“The new pool facilities in the Leisure Centre are very impressive and while it will be a great place for our local swimming athletes to train, the facilities are to be enjoyed by people of all fitness levels.

“The building has been developed by local contractors and represents best practice in sustainable leisure design.

She added, “I wish to commend the work of the team at Felix O’Hare Ltd and the officials at Newry and Mourne District Council for driving the project forward.”
