Local MP Caroline Dinenage today welcomed the news that Gosport Day Services is to remain fully open.
Caroline had received numerous correspondence from service users expressing their concerns with proposals to move Gosport Day Services into the Gosport Discovery Centre as part of Hampshire County Council's plans for a new Community Hub. Due to this, Caroline made representations to Hampshire County Council regarding the issues raised.
Hampshire County Council have recently informed both Caroline and service users that Gosport Day Services is to remain open fully with the potential for further access to the Gosport Community Hub space for some activities based in the local community.
Commenting Caroline said:
"I am pleased to hear that Hampshire County Council have taken on board the feedback they received regarding this proposal and have decided to keep Gosport Day Services open.
This service is vital for so many in the Gosport Constituency and I am encouraged that service users can continue to use this wonderful facility."
