INTRODUCTION This is the report by Knight, Kavanagh & Page (KKP) to deliver a strategic framework for indoor sport and recreation facilities for the Wakefield District. It builds upon an audit and needs analysis carried out in 2007, and delivers a PPG17 compliant assessment, providing a robust quantitative and qualitative assessment and uses this to develop local standards of provision. It also takes into consideration and contributes to the implementation of the existing Sport and Active Lifestyles Strategy (2007–2012). To this extent, this Strategy is consistent with the Council’s aim to give everyone the opportunity to participate in sport and active recreation. It will also inform local planning and regeneration processes over the next 15 years. The framework will contribute to corporate, strategic and development planning, inform the Local Development Framework (LDF) and is relevant to the Wakefield District Cultural Strategy 2007-2012 (Experience Wakefield Yorkshire) and Community Strategy (Developing Knowledge Communities). This document will: � Provide the basis for reviewing leisure policies and proposals in the Unitary

Development Plan (UDP) with the intention of bringing forward a separate Development Plan Document (DPD) on Leisure/ Open Space in the future. As well as providing a justification for inclusion of developer contributions for indoor sports facilities as part of the planning process. The Study will provide evidence of need to access a range of capital grants.

� Provide the basis for establishing new sports facility requirements by determining whether the right facilities are in the right place to serve Wakefield residents and sports clubs.

� Provide a clear rationale for planning new sports facility provision and protecting existing facilities threatened by development.

� Determine an appropriate balance between public, private, voluntary and education sector facility provision to meet identified local need.

� Provide a robust and up to date evidence base to inform land allocations and planning policies in the LDF based on assessments of the scope for improving the performance of existing facilities

Context The implications of the policy context for sport and recreation facility provision in Wakefield can be summarised as follows: Policy area Summary and implications

National planning policy

PPG 17 provides guidance to local authorities about planning and providing for sport and recreation facilities, in particular the need to undertake a robust quantitative and qualitative audit and the development of rigorously researched local standards of provision. This assessment and is consistent with the guidance.

National sports policy Government policy provides a general framework for significantly increasing levels of participation/physical activity and support for elite sport. Sports facilities in Wakefield should underpin these objectives via the creation of a network of facilities suitable for community sports development and, where appropriate, elite sport.

Policy area Summary and implications

Other (relevant) national policy

The benefits of increasing participation in sport and active recreation are both explicit and implicit in much government policy. Development of a network of appealing, accessible sport and recreation facilities in Wakefield should embrace, and demonstrate contribution to, these wider social objectives.

Regional planning policy

The Regional Spatial Strategy (RSS) for Yorkshire and the Humber covers a 15 – 20 year period. It sets out a vision for a world-class region where the economic, environmental and social well being of all the people is advancing more rapidly and more sustainably than competitors. The focus for residential development is in key centres, which makes these areas the most likely to secure significant developer contributions (partly as a result of increased demand) for sport and recreation facilities. The RSS identifies a target of 1,600 dwelling per annum in Wakefield.

Regional sports policy The policy is consistent with regional sports policy in that it aims to increase participation levels by: � Developing multi-sport hub sites. � Developing local free-play facilities. � Securing developer contributions. � Maintaining existing, and developing new, facilities.

Local planning policy

The existing Unitary Development Plan reiterates that the focus for development will be urban areas particularly in relation to: � Living and working. � Environmental assets. � Transport and access. � Development of built facilities should be cognisant of Local Plan

aspirations. The Government has introduced the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 which requires the Council to produce a new-style local planning framework to replace its Unitary Development Plan (UDP). The Council adopted its current UDP First Alteration in January 2003 to guide and control development and protect the environment. This will remain in use until the new Local Development Framework (LDF) is introduced.

Local sports policy The principal objective of the Sport & Active Lifestyle Strategy is to increase participation and improve performance in sport and physical activity. This will require a comprehensive network of appropriate opportunities and facilities.

Community Strategy The preparation of this PPG17 Strategic Plan is set within the context of the Community Strategy – ‘Developing Knowledge Communities’ which is a shared commitment and programme of action from all communities and organisations to help the Wakefield District Partnership achieve its stated vision of: � In 25 years time Wakefield District will be a place:

� Moving forward motivated by pride and its heritage. � Where (local) people look after themselves and each other so that they are safe

and healthy, having the skills and confidence to take more control over their lives.

� With places that are attractive to live, learn, work and invest in and where (locally) diverse towns and villages work together to promote the well being of the whole of the district.

� Where together with the younger people of the district we (sic) will ensure that the work we (sic) do now will stand the test of time.

Three priority regeneration areas are outlined within the Wakefield District Community Strategy to recognise the need to develop coordinated approaches at a sub-district level, based around regeneration: � The Urban Renaissance of Wakefield City. � The Five Towns Initiative. � Reconnecting the Coalfield Communities in the South East.

METHODOLOGY Context PPG 17 ‘Planning for Open Space, Sport and Recreation’ was published in July 2002 followed in September of the same year by ‘Assessing Needs and Opportunities: A Companion Guide to PPG 17’. It re-affirms the importance of local authorities undertaking ‘robust assessments of the existing and future needs of their communities’. Paragraph 5 states that ‘good quality assessments and audits, leading to clear strategies supported by effective planning polices, will provide vital tools for resolving potential conflicts that arise between different uses and users of open space, sports and recreational facilities.’ Paragraph 10 goes on to state that ‘existing open space, sports and recreational buildings and land should not be built on unless an assessment has been undertaken which has clearly shown the land to be surplus to requirements.’ Surplus to requirements should include consideration of all the functions that land and buildings can perform. Not all open space, sport and recreational land and buildings are of equal merit and some may be available for alternative uses. The guidance suggests that ‘in the absence of a robust, up-to-date assessment by a local authority, an applicant for planning permission may seek to demonstrate through an independent assessment that the land or buildings are surplus to requirements. Developers will need to consult the local community and demonstrate that their proposals are widely supported by them.’ The Assessment will result in WMDC being provided with a study that enables it to establish frameworks for the development and management of indoor sports facilities across the local authority area. Introduction The term ‘indoor sport facilities’ includes large, purpose built sports centres with ‘District wide’ significance, locally significant facilities and facilities provided by both the education and private sectors. Within this framework, ownership and management are fundamentally important. They determine the effectiveness with which facilities serve the community and meet local need. A comprehensive audit of sport and recreation facilities in the District was conducted during summer 2007 as part of research for the Wakefield Sport and Active Lifestyles Strategy. This study use Active Places data/information to update the audit and provide a non-technical quality assessment of provision. It provides a spatial evidence base which should be capable of adoption into Wakefield’s’ own GIS and therefore provide the spatial needs and evidence base for Development Planning purposes. The Audit provides a ‘snap shot’ of the situation at that time and was based on a consistently used proforma to standardise data collection. The audit: � Analysed the quantity of provision. � Assessed the levels and types of use of facilities. � Assessed provision quality.

Agenda Page 46

Final report: Knight Kavanagh & Page 5

The standardised audit proforma allowed each facility to be considered on a ‘like for like’ basis. Analysis of the distribution of, and interrelationship between, sport and recreation facilities also helped to evaluate demand. The audit also considered the ‘life expectancy’ and/or basic building development requirements of facilities. It gives an indication of areas of high demand, where there is potential to provide improved and/ or additional facilities to meet this demand and to, where appropriate, protect the current stock. Ownership and management are also fundamental and are covered. This can determine the effectiveness with which facilities serve the community and meet local need. Analysis The key focus of this part of the study is to present the key findings and issues relating to indoor sports facility provision in Wakefield. It draws together the key issues that must be addressed via clear strategic pathways for improvement, investment and protection of indoor recreational facilities. The key aims are to provide: � Assessment of key indoor sports facilities including quality, quantity, distribution and

accessibility. � Evaluation of the distribution and usage of indoor sports facilities. � Analysis and identification of current unmet and future demand. � Assessment of the impact of national/regional/local initiatives and development plans

on the provision of indoor facilities. The Active Places Power Plus tool is used as a facility-planning tool produced by Sport England for the provision of sports facilities (as recognised by PPG17 guidance as best practise). It has been designed to assist in investment decisions across Government and to help local authorities carry out audits of their sports provision and develop local strategies. It also assists national governing bodies of sport to identify areas in need of an improvement in sports facility provision.

Consultation The brief for the assessment audit was agreed by the principal stakeholders, Wakefield Council and Sport England Yorkshire. The development of the quantity standards is based on demand identified through mapping and Active Places Power analysis, which is a tool recognised by Sport England as providing robust and transparent evidence of need.

DEMOGRAPHIC CONTEXT Population The latest projections show that, if current trends continue, the population will grow by a further 9.0% by 2028. In line with national trends the District’s population is ageing and this trend is set to continue. Numbers aged over 60 will increase by 55% in the next 25 years, whilst those aged under 60 will fall by 3%. The working age population will decrease as those born between 1945 and 1970 move into retirement and are replaced by smaller numbers born since the mid-1970s.

Ethnic minorities accounted for just 2.3% of the District’s population at the time of the 2001 Census, compared with 9.1% in England as a whole. This is most concentrated around Wakefield City Centre and provides a significant user group for Lightwaves Leisure Centre (as illustrated in the figure below). This is reflected in the high usage of the sports hall for sports such as cricket, which is heavily used by the local Asian community.

Health A range of indicators suggest a significant proportion of the District’s population have health problems. More than 20% of people in the District have reported in surveys that they have a limiting long-term illness, health problem or disability. On average people living in areas to the east of Wakefield city experience significantly higher levels of poor health compared to those living in the west of the District. Of particular concern is the need for more services to be provided locally and to be more integrated. Figure 3: Wakefield – Indices of deprivation 2007 – Health rank

Physical activity Sport England Active People 2 survey analysis reveals that activity and satisfaction levels in the District vary in comparison to Yorkshire and national averages. This is most significant with regard to participation, which shows that Wakefield is significantly higher than regional and national averages. However, the survey also reveals that sports provision satisfaction levels in Wakefield are significantly lower than the regional and national scores, which indicates that a comprehensive network of quality, sport facilities is required to maintain participation levels and meet the expectations of residents. Figure 4: West Yorkshire County Sports Partnership Participation1 Estimates by Middle Super Output Area (MSOA)

Sport England has also developed a segmentation model (made up of nineteen ‘sporting’ segments) to help better understand the attitudes, motivations and perceived barriers to sports participation. These are designed to assist partners to make tailored interventions, communicate more effectively with target market(s) and to better understand participation in the context of life stage and lifecycles. The most significant segments in Wakefield are ‘Elsie and Arnold’ (i.e. Retirement Home Singles), which is not too dissimilar from regional and national trends; however, the proportion in Wakefield is higher and ‘Kev’ (i.e., Pub League Team Mates), which differs from the national trend but not significantly from the regional trend. Further market segmentation has been created by Experian in the form of Mosaic, which classifies all consumers in the United Kingdom into 61 types aggregated into 11 groups. The result is a classification that paints a picture of UK consumers in terms of their socio-demographics, lifestyles, culture and behaviour to provide a view of UK consumers at the start of the 21st century. 1 Participation is defined as the percent of the adult population participating in at least 30 minutes of sport and active recreation (including recreational walking and cycling) of at least moderate intensity on at least 3 days a week.

The most significant segments in Wakefield include ‘Happy Families’ (people whose focus is on career, home and family) and ‘Blue Collar Enterprise’ (people who, though not necessarily very well educated, are practical and enterprising in their orientation). Welfare Borderline and Municipal Dependency groups are also well above national averages and together with Happy Families and Blue Collar Enterprise account for most of the population.

KEY ISSUES The Sport & Active Lifestyles Strategy 2007, which included the audit and assessment of sports and recreation facilities, is available from Wakefield Sport & Active Lifestyles. Since the Sport and Active Lifestyles Strategy was written, the following has occurred: � Council agreement to progress new swimming provision in Wakefield city centre and

the south east of the district � Upgraded health and fitness provision at Thornes Park and Lightwaves Leisure

Centre � Significant investment in new state-of–the–art equipment and refurbishment of the

Aspire gyms at Thornes Park Stadium and Lightwaves Leisure Centre, and agreement to invest at Knottingley Sports Centre.

� Completion of a feasibility study and progression towards the development of Thornes Park to provide a Community Stadium and home for Wakefield Wildcats. The study concluded that the Council would not be moving forward with this project, but officers would continue to support the three professional rugby football league teams with their stadium ambitions.

� Review of the dual use arrangements at Wakefield City High and Freeston Business College, which has seen the schools take responsibility for the management of the indoor sports facilities.

� The impact of the Free Swim initiative for young people aged 16 and under, and older people aged 60 and over, which has raised awareness, expectation and demand for swimming provision across the district.

� Wakefield District’s acceptance onto the Building Schools for the Future programme. In planning for the future, there remain opportunities for some specific facility developments as follows: � Major colliery sites available for development have continued potential for sport and

leisure facilities, in particular, the Prince of Wales Colliery, Pontefract. � The potential for an indoor bowls facility to be located at Thornes Park and other

informal provision to address the needs of older people. � The potential for spectator seating at Thornes Park Stadium to enable promotion of

Wakefield Harriers to the National League. � New stadium facilities for Castleford Tigers, Featherstone Rovers and Wakefield

Wildcats (potentially including integration of community leisure provision within facility developments).

� Partnership provision in the South East of the district. � A number of facility improvements / developments in the voluntary sector. � Opening up formal pay and play community access to school facilities (on priority

basis, across the district, to complement Wakefield Council provision). � Potential impact of and opportunities through the 2012 London Olympics. In

particular in relation to Wakefield Hockey Club water based pitch and the new sports hall at Minsthorpe College which are included as pre games training camps for Wakefield.

� Potential need for the development of an indoor tennis facility. Building Schools for the Future

There is clearly a need to take full advantage of the opportunity to make greater use of schools and take advantage of the Private Finance Initiative (PFI) and Building Schools for the Future (BSF). Recommendations need not only to be based on sound evidence, but also to enable local agencies and stakeholders to open the door and influence the manner in which programmes such as BSF are planned and delivered. Conversely, if the opportunities presented by BSF are not shaped and made to fit into a district-wide sports facilities framework, there is a danger that it will be delivered in such a way as to limit opportunity and cannibalise key catchments, actually restricting progress on affordable community use of schools. Wakefield has successfully been accepted onto the BSF programme and a PE and sport stakeholder group has been coordinated to ensure this report will form part of the evidence base for facility need as part of BSF. The following keys issues have also been identified, which need to be addressed by this PPG17 Strategic Plan. Local issues Key statistics which are influencing the priorities of the Council and its partners include: � Wakefield District is ranked the 54th most deprived local authority area in England

(out of 345 – where 1 is the most deprived and 345 the least) 34% of the district’s population live in areas that are among the 10% most deprived in the Country.

� Wakefield is the 11th most deprived area of the Country in terms of employment and the 29th most deprived area in terms of income (Indices of Deprivation 2004).

� 29 of the District’s 209 Super Output Areas (SOAs – sub-districts identified by the Indices of Deprivation 2004) are within the 10% most deprived in England. 12 SOAs are ranked in the 5% most deprived and one lies within the 1% most deprived SOAs in England.

� 6.6% of households consist of lone parent households with dependent children (similar to national average of 6.4%) (2001Census).

� Poor health (coronary heart disease and respiratory diseases) is a key issue for many of the District’s residents.

� Given the geographical nature of the District, the Council recognises that access to a range of provision and services is a particular issue. Public transport is limited, particularly later in the day and in to the evening and this can affect people’s ability access to sports facilities and services.

� Wakefield District has the second highest level of childhood obesity in the UK. Facility issues � Two facilities are in a particularly poor condition. These are Lightwaves Pool, and

Knottingley Sports Centre and Pool. Knottingley Sports Centre and Pool are nearing the end of their useful life. The facilities need to be replaced, or significantly refurbished.

� Lightwaves is located in Wakefield city centre and there is no dedicated parking. There are major concerns regarding the life of the leisure pool plant equipment and the life of the pool in its current state. Consideration should be given to the future of the site before further investment is made. It is also important to note that there is a

Agenda Page 54

Final report: Knight Kavanagh & Page 13

minority ethnic population based in the city centre that use this facility which should influence the retaining of some form of community facility on the site or nearby.

� Minsthorpe Pool is also in poor condition, and future provision of the facility requires consideration.

� Normanton Pool provides a good model of a local community facility. Its drawback is that the facility is a stand-alone pool.

MINIMUM LOCAL PROVISION STANDARDS Setting local minimum provision standards will provide Wakefield MDC with a contemporary and informed view of indoor sport facilities and provides the tools to facilitate speedy and successful negotiation of developer contributions through development of supplementary planning documents, to resist unsuitable planning applications for development and ensure effective planning. The Companion Guide to PPG17 states that local standards should include: � A quantitative component (i.e., how much provision is needed). � A qualitative component (i.e., condition). � An accessibility component (e.g., travel distances, cost). Inclusion of a minimum acceptable size also helps as a guide to facility development. The relative importance of these elements varies from one provision type to another. Minimum provision standards are set for sports halls, swimming pools, fitness provision and indoor bowling facilities. They are aspirational and based on identification of current and future demand and premised on the calculation of effective catchment areas. They do not necessarily apply to a single site. Facilities should also be managed in an appropriate manner. Quantity shortfalls are, primarily, the result of projected housing development in the District. Development of new, and improvement to existing, facilities to address these shortfalls should be concentrated in the proximity of the principal development areas (i.e., Castleford Central, Glasshoughton and Airedale areas). All facilities are assumed to offer at least ‘adequate’, but not exclusive, day-time community use, to be ‘fit for purpose’ (i.e., able to provide opportunity in activities for which they are intended), be in at least ‘adequate condition’ and provide adequate car parking for peak time usage in a safe and secure location adjacent to the facility(s). Population projections The Office of National Statistics has recently produced long term population projections. They project forward the mid year estimates of population for 2004 and give an indication of future trends by age and gender for next 25 years. The current total District population in Wakefield is 321,200 (ONS 2006 mid-year population estimates) and a projected population increase to 340,000 by 2018. Therefore, this is an increase of 5.9% between 2006 and 2018. This figure is applied to the quantitative local standard to reflect potential increases in demand for provision in the future. Participation increases In addition to population growth, potential increases in participation could be generated in the future and we can therefore anticipate expected demand for some types of facilities. Additional other potential increases include:

� Wakefield Sport and Active Lifestyles offers support and assistance on the development opportunities in sport for clubs, schools, voluntary organisations and community groups. It also co-ordinates and supports the provision of a wider range of outreach events, training courses and activity programmes.

� Sport England’s Yorkshire Plan for Sport and Physical Activity 2008 - 2011 main aim is to increase participation by 1% year on year, leading to 50% participation across Yorkshire by 2020.

Therefore, for modelling purposes, we have assumed a 6% population increase and 7% participation increase over the next five years to analyse potential demand. This is applied below within the demand analysis to give a clear indication (based on current supply) if demand is met now and in the future.

QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS In order to identify any shortfalls in the quantity of indoor sports facilities within Wakefield, we have utilised Sport England’s Active Places Power capacity analysis (or supply and demand analysis). This analysis uses the current capacity of provision across the District and potential demand (based on population and participation trends), to analysis if the current capacity of facilities is being met by current demand. This then gives a clear indication of shortfalls. In addition, we have applied population and participation increases to the demand to calculate if current supply will also meet future demands. Sports halls

There are 23 sports halls (minimum four badminton court) in Wakefield with the majority located on education sites. These have varying degrees of access. WMDC owns and manages two of these sports halls (Lightwaves Leisure Centre and Knottingley Sports Centre). An important consideration in examining the provision of sports halls in Wakefield is access. This is particularly significant because the majority of sports halls are on school sites. This suggests that, whilst there is a good range of sports hall provision in the District, access is restricted at a number of sites. Analysis of demand for sports halls Table 1: Active Places Power analysis of demand for sports halls Current Future (2018)

% England demand met 129.3% -

% Yorkshire & Humber Region demand met

Identification (through analysis of Active Places Power) that 140% of demand for a particular type of facility is satisfied indicates that all needs in an area are met (this takes into account the quality of provision and the extent to which school facilities may be available). On this basis, Wakefield is currently significantly under-provided in terms of sports halls. When predicated population growth and participation projections are taken into consideration this situation is further exacerbated. A sizeable proportion of the available sports hall space is delivered through the education sector and, in some cases, access is restricted. This suggests a greater focus on securing community use agreements (possibly linked to plans to increased community use of school facilities under the Extended Schools initiative) is required and that 1 Assumes 6% population growth and 7% participation increase across Wakefield in the next ten years.

Agenda Page 58

WAKEFIELD COUNCIL PPG17 INDOOR SPORTS FACILITIES STRATEGIC PLAN

Final report: Knight Kavanagh & Page 17

consideration should be given to additional provision if it is not possible to secure greater levels of community access to school based facilities. Swimming pools There are currently 16 sites providing swimming pool provision in Wakefield. Of these, seven have a degree of restricted access due to the fact that they operate on a membership basis only (including Bannatynes Health Club and Future Fitness Club). Three pools are provided on school sites and the remaining are all available for public swimming.

Identification (through analysis of Active Places Power) that 140% of demand for a particular type of facility is satisfied indicates that all needs in an area are met (this takes into account the quality of provision and the extent to which school facilities may be available). On this basis, both current and future demand for swimming provision in Wakefield is met. However, it is not significant enough to suggest that there is an oversupply of provision. Health and Fitness provision There are 36 sites, providing a total of 1,821 fitness stations in Wakefield. The private fitness sector in Wakefield is now well established, reflected by the fact that 75% of sites are operated by the commercial sector (split 60% membership and 40% pay and play). Provision at Thornes Park significantly contributes to the availability of health and fitness provision in Wakefield. It is now the largest Council owned site providing 70 stations.

Analysis of demand for health and fitness provision Active Places Power does not provide any analysis for fitness provision. Therefore, demand has been calculated using the following analysis: Table 3: Analysis of demand for health and fitness provision Current Future (2018)

Wakefield currently has 1,821 fitness stations. Anticipated demand in 2018 equates to the need for 1,775 stations. Although a sizeable proportion of provision is made through the private sector, the fact that significant provision is made at Thornes Park means that there is no particular need to increase fitness provision in the District, now or in the future. However, there is an opportunity to consider pay and play options at the site as identified within the Sport and Active Lifestyles Strategy. Indoor bowls There is one indoor bowling facility servicing the Wakefield District, located in Featherstone. This is a private facility operating on a pay and play basis and was built in 1996, containing four rinks. Table 4: Active Places Power analysis of demand for indoor bowls Current Future (2018)

WAKEFIELD COUNCIL PPG17 INDOOR SPORTS FACILITIES STRATEGIC PLAN

Final report: Knight Kavanagh & Page 19

Demand for indoor bowling facilities is currently not being met by the current provision in Wakefield. Only one facility in Featherstone is servicing the whole District. Coupled with the increasing popularity of indoor bowling mats at Thornes Park, this suggests that there is demand for a new indoor bowling facility in the District. This could be achieved by an extension to the current building. Additional community sports facilities Housing development is one of the principal justifications for additional community sports facilities (i.e., new residents increase demand for sports facilities). Currently an average of 1,600 new dwellings each year is planned in Wakefield (although this may increase to 1,900 dwellings per annum if the Leeds City Region new housing growth area bid is successful). Development will be focused on the Castleford Central, Glasshoughton and Airedale areas. Demand for sport and recreation facilities will increase most significantly in these areas, particularly when population growth resulting from housing development is combined with potential increases in levels of participation. The five key towns of Castleford, Pontefract, Normanton, Knottingley and Featherstone, form part of an urban renaissance programme. The key themes and objectives identified are to expand and diversify town centres to bring them back into use, make them more accessible to outlying neighbourhoods and improve public transport links between towns. New development will be concentrated within centres using Brownfield land to protect green belt and ensure the separate identity of settlements is maintained. Significantly for this strategy, the vision is to create a group of self-sustaining settlements, which will require a network of sport facilities. Where there is insufficient justification, based on housing and related projections alone, for new facilities, identification of need is important in justifying their development. Identified priority sport and recreation facility development needs in Wakefield are (in no particular order) to: � Develop additional/replace sports hall(s) to provide additional and/or replace ageing

facilities. � Increase use (and accessibility) of sport and recreation facilities particularly in the

southern, more rural areas of Wakefield. � Improve community access to secondary school provision. The way that facilities are managed and operated also influences their use. Key issues that should be considered and/or addressed in Wakefield include: � Ensuring good access to court time for sports development and/or club development

activity. � Central programming of school facilities for community use. � Support for ‘elite performance’ provision, generally focused on rugby league stadia.

Agenda Page 61

Final report: Knight Kavanagh & Page 20

Analysis of the Assessment also identifies the principles that should underpin all sport and recreation facility development in the District. These are to: � Improve the quality of existing facilities. � Develop more facilities in rural areas. � Develop policies to obtain developer contributions. � Increase community use of primary school facilities particularly in smaller settlements

schools. � Provide more facilities closer to where people live, particularly free-play facilities.

QUALITATIVE ANALYSIS A full assessment of quality has been made to all key local authority and dual use facilities in Wakefield, which is summarised below. Further quality analysis is provided within the KKP project database taken from Active Places. Table 5: Summary of audit findings by facility Facility name Facility

quality rating

Description and summary of key points

Normanton Swimming Pool

Built in 2002, this stand-alone, town centre, swimming pool is in good condition. There is good access to it and ample car parking available.

Castleford Pool This stand alone facility provides a swimming pool. It is in average condition and is currently fit for purpose but is looking tired and dated. There is potential for the building to be extended to accommodate a fitness suite or sports hall if required. It is a significant local community facility.

Minsthorpe Swimming Pool

Stand alone facility with pool only. Built in 1969 it is now in poor condition and is not fit for purpose although it is has a strong local user base.

Lightwaves Leisure Centre

This land locked, City Centre facility with no car parking, provides an adequate sports hall, which has a life expectancy of approximately 10 years, adequate fitness and a poor quality leisure pool which is becoming increasingly unfit for purpose. The sports hall is well used by the local Asian community, particularly for cricket training and the squash courts have been converted to a boxing academy.

Wakefield City High

Dual use site providing a self contained sports hall and fitness suite. Good community use but has some spare capacity.

Knottingley Sports Centre

Built in 1969 this stand alone facility provides a sports hall, small fitness suite, and swimming pool which is generally in poor condition. The fitness suite has recently been refurbished (Jan 08). Strong local community facility with a high value to local residents.

Featherstone Sports Complex

Swimming pool facility located on Featherstone School campus in very good condition having been built in 2005. The site also houses a new school sports centre recently opened (Oct 2007) operated as dual use and contains sports hall, gymnasium, fitness, STP, MUGA.

Pontefract Pool Stand alone, swimming pool only facility that is in very poor condition. It is in a difficult location adjacent to a supermarket car park with little option for expansion.

Thornes Park In addition to the athletics track, facilities include indoor straight also utilised for Sports Acro and Indoor Bowls. This site now provides the largest local authority fitness provision, which is in very good condition. Potential to extend the building to develop an indoor bowls centre. Lack of spectator seating inhibits national competitions being held here.

Freeston Business College

Dual use site providing a self contained sports hall and fitness suite.

ACCESSIBILITY ANALYSIS Catchment areas for different types of provision provide a tool for identifying areas currently not served by existing sports facilities. It is recognised that catchment areas vary from person to person, day to day, hour to hour. This problem has been overcome in PPG17 by accepting the concept of ‘effective catchments’, defined as the distance travelled by around 75-80% of users. When accessing accessibility the former CPA performance indicators for provision should also be taken into account. Foremost amongst these is the access indicator for facility provision; ‘the percentage of population that are (reside) within 20 minutes travel time (urban areas –walking; rural areas – by car) of a range of three different sports facility types of which one has achieved a quality assured standard’. This standard has been applied to sports halls, swimming pools and health and fitness provision across Wakefield and is presented below. Sports halls There is a good spread of sports halls across the District but not all residents are within a 20 minute walk time of provision. (recommended by Sport England for areas defined as urban). Significantly deficient areas include Featherstone and South Wakefield. Table 6: Wakefield sports halls (4 badminton courts +) with 20 min walk time catchments Map ID

Swimming pools Not all residents are within a 20 minute walk (recommended by Sport England for areas defined as urban) of swimming pool provision. Provision is concentrated around Wakefield City Centre. Of most significance in terms of population density, is the gap in provision on the outskirts of Castleford and in Airedale. However, other deficient areas include Hemsworth and Minsthorpe. In Minsthorpe provision is further inhibited by poor quality provision.

Usage A significant proportion of users of WMDC facilities come for neighbouring areas.

Wakefield City High 1.5 Use by non-Wakefield residents is most significant in East Knottingley where a significant proportion (22.1%) of Knottingley Pool users come from Selby, despite the facility’s poor quality. In effect there is a high degree of importing into Wakefield from Selby. This is also highlighted further in Figure 10, which shows there to be no facilities within at least a 2-mile catchment area of Selby from the Wakefield Authority boundary. However, other facilities close to the local authority boundary do not attract users to the same extent. For example, Featherstone Sports Complex is as close to Leeds as Knottingley is to Selby (it is also better quality), but only 8.5% of users travel from outside the District. This is primarily due to the paucity of facilities in the Selby area that boarders Wakefield (i.e., there are no sports halls or swimming pools within a two-mile radius of the Wakefield authority boundary in Selby).

SUMMARY OF SHORTFALLS Shortfalls in the quantity, quality and accessibility of indoor sport facilities in Wakefield and key issues, as identified from the supply and demand analysis, are summarised as follows: Quantity � Wakefield is currently significantly under-provided for in terms of sports halls. This is

further exacerbated when taking into account future population and participation growth (calculated to equate to the need for 12 badminton courts). Current plans including new provision at Glasshoughton and Prince of Wales Colliery will both contribute to the majority of provision needed. This is explored and demonstrated further in the proposed sports facilities model.

� Both current and future demand for swimming provision in Wakefield is met. However, it is not significant enough to suggest that there is an oversupply of provision and access is limited at a number of sites, such as those owned and managed by the education and commercial sectors. Quality of provision is the main issue to be addressed with swimming pool provision. However, this does not necessarily mean that quality should be improved at all poor quality sites identified and it is likely that rationalisation and new provision will be more cost effective and address wider accessibility issues identified. This is explored and demonstrated further in the proposed sports facilities model.

� Demand analysis shows that there is no particular need to increase fitness provision further in the District, now and in the future as according to our analysis there is an oversupply of 46 stations in the District. However, there are accessibility issues as many private fitness providers operate a membership only policy. There may also be instances of need to increase the number of stations at current dual use sites in order to increase the user base, but this not a priority.

� Demand for indoor bowling facilities is not currently being met by existing provision. Quality � Generally the quality of sports halls is good throughout the District. � The majority of Council owned swimming pool provision is dated and in need of

refurbishment or major rebuild. This includes pools at Lightwaves, Knottingley and Minsthorpe.

� No particularly issues were identified with quality of health and fitness provision. A sizeable proportion of health and fitness provision is made through the private sector and is generally of a high standard.

Accessibility � There is a good spread of sports halls across the District but not all residents are

within a 20 minute walk time (recommended by Sport England for areas defined as urban). Significantly deficient areas include South Wakefield. In addition, many sports halls have limited access depending on the management processes and policies. This is especially relevant to sports halls on education sites.

� Swimming pool provision is concentrated around Wakefield City Centre. However, deficient areas include Hemsworth and Airedale. Access to provision in Minsthorpe is inhibited by poor quality provision.

� There is a good spread of health and fitness provision across the District but not all residents are within a 20 minute walk time (recommended by Sport England for areas defined as urban). Significantly deficient areas include Airedale and the outskirts of Castleford and South Elmsall.

� Increasing access to education provision will go someway to improve accessibility across Wakefield. For example, the Council operates Minsthorpe Pool and there is access to good quality sports facilities at Minsthorpe Community College

QUANTITY STANDARDS Quantity standards (per 1,000 people) have been calculated by KKP as part of this study and recommended for inclusion in Wakefield supplementary planning documents to help secure developer contributions towards sport and recreation facility investment. They have been calculated by: � Calculating current provision in square metres (by multiplying the number of facilities

identified in the Assessment by the relevant minimum size. � Calculating future additional requirements in square metres (by multiplying identified

shortfalls by a facility’s relevant minimum sizes). � Adding the two calculations above together to calculate total requirements. � Dividing this by the projected future population for the District (i.e., 340,100). � Multiplying this number by 1,000. The quantity standards per 1,000 people for indoor sports facilities in Wakefield are: Type of facility Spatial2

The following maps show minimum provision standards (based on the amount (i.e., square metres) of provision per 1,000 population) as a traffic light system to highlight where there is under provision based on population density. The most useful way to view the maps is to compare the standards by ward against the District standard in the table above.

2 Spatial requirement includes the recommended minimum size for a single facility plus 15% for circulation, changing accommodation, reception, run-off (as required) etc.

STRATEGIC POLICY OPTIONS The application of the minimum provision standards has identified the following priority deficiencies/issues for indoor sports facilities in Wakefield: � Continued quantity of swimming pool provision (not necessarily location). This is a

particularly significant issue for facilities in poor condition and principal community sports facilities coming to the end of their ‘operational lives’ (e.g., Lightwaves Leisure Centre, Knottingley Sports Centre and Minsthorpe Pool).

� Continued quantity of health and fitness provision to at least, comparable levels. However, increased accessibility to provision is required by working towards introducing pay and play fitness.

� Additional sports hall space of approximately twelve badminton courts will be required to meet population growth and increases in participation levels.

� The quality of swimming pools at Lightwaves Leisure Centre, Knottingley Sports Centre and Minsthorpe Pool should be improved to meet minimum provision standards, or replacement plans identified.

� Increased opportunities to encourage a mixed economy of providers across the District and increase access to provision in areas of deficiency.

� There is a need to increase access to education provision across the District in order to reduce the pressures of management capacity on WMDC. This should be incorporated into BSF strategic planning.

� Additional indoor bowling facility is required to meet current and future demand in Wakefield.

� Increased opportunities to develop multi sports hubs. � 85% percent of the population should live within 20 minutes walk time of an indoor

leisure provision facility i.e. sports hall, swimming pool and/or fitness suite. Four principal policy options are explored below in the context of meeting the priority deficiencies/issues key outlined above and have informed the development of the proposed sports facilities model (overleaf). Four principal policy options Policy option Comment

New facility provision

Providing new facilities to meet specific deficiencies/issues:

There are significant opportunities across Wakefield for rationalisation of WMDC facilities by providing new sports complex facilities in partnership with the regeneration developments related to:

Provision ofcommunity sports facilities and rugby league stadium at Glasshoughton and Thornes Park.

Relocation of Wakefield College and its leisure provision relating to the Thornes Park development.

Development of new school sports facilities that also serve community needs. This could help to meet some deficiencies.

Development of new housing in the District will offer opportunities for financial contributions from property developers, to assist with meeting the costs for new or improved indoor sport facility provision to cater for the projected increase in population.

Voluntary sector sports clubs are, and will continue to be, significant facility providers etc. Clubs could be supported to safeguard existing provision and to develop new facilities to meet identified deficiencies/issues.

Agenda Page 81

WAKEFIELD COUNCIL PPG17 INDOOR SPORTS FACILITIES STRATEGIC PLAN

40

Policy option Comment

Upgraded facility provision

Upgrading existing facility provision would meet the qualitative deficiencies identified. However, issues would remain regarding the sustainability (particularly related to cost efficiency) to operating pool only or sports hall only facilities.

Enhanced access to existing facilities

The predominance of dual-use sport and recreation facilities on school sites both restricts daytime community access (particularly to 4-badminton court sports halls) and potentially provides opportunities to address some of the identified deficiencies/issues.

Ensuring the appropriate, regular community use of school sites can be more cost effective than operating dual use agreements for WMDC.

Integrated facility provision

In some instances, the deficiencies identified could be met through adapted or integrated provision. For example:

Combined provision of facilities (e.g., swimming pools and sports halls) could enhance the network of community facilities.

Ensuring that schools/village/community halls can accommodate carpet bowls could significantly reduce the effective catchment areas of indoor bowls facilities in Wakefield and the need for additional specialist facilities.

Proposed sports facilities model Following exploration of the four policy options within the Wakefield context, we have selected the most appropriate sports facilities model on the basis of evidence identified through consultation and applying our in depth consultancy experience of facility planning. The proposed model (below) details the appropriate placement of facilities across the District, linking to the demand for those facilities and covering the range of participation types. This will assist WMDC to achieve a network of sports facilities that will support elite sport and recreational activity. The table below is a summary of existing key facility stock; their age, quality, location and other factors (e.g. facility mix), together with proposals for refurbishment, modernisation or closure as part of the proposed sports facility model.

SUMMARY � In order to meet identified deficiencies in provision and retain the quantity of

provision, the Glasshoughton development should provide a minimum of one 25m x 6 lane swimming pool and an eight badminton court sports hall. This could replace Castleford Pool and Pontefract Pool (and some of the identified deficiency in sports hall provision).

� In order to meet the identified deficiencies in provision and retain the quantity of

provision, the city centre development should provide a minimum of one 25m x 6 lane swimming pool and a four badminton court sports hall. This would cater for the future replacement of Lightwaves Leisure Pool.

� Significant investment in fitness facilities (January 2008) at Knottingley Sports Centre

and its location in an area of high population density and areas of low car ownership within its catchment (as demonstrated below), suggest that travel to alternative provision in the District by local residents is unrealistic.

� Participation in Knottingley and is classified by Sport England as being low, in accordance with the percent of the adult population participating in at least 30 minutes of sport and active recreation (including recreational walking and cycling) of at least moderate intensity on at least 3 days a week.

Figure 14: Wakefield – Knottingley Sports Centre – % households without a car or van

� Retention of the facility would be justified/viable if WMDC could seek contributions for

investment from Selby District Council for use by its residents. Although this is not common practise, it is not beyond the realms of possibility and this kind of negotiation has seen success elsewhere. For example, Three Rivers District Council (Hertfordshire) identified there to be a lack of provision for its residents near to the

boundary with Watford and negotiated (with Watford Borough Council) a contribution to the refurbishment of Watford Leisure Centre in order to increase its capacity and attraction for the residents of Three Rivers.

� Minsthorpe Pool is recommended for decommissioning only if the equivalent water space can be retained within Minsthorpe and ideally at Minsthorpe Sports College. Closure of the pool would create a significant accessibility catchment gap in the area.
