Our BRUG Survey is going well

The Brixton Recreation Centre User Group has been collecting views on The Brixton Rec to help us improve the facilities for everyone. 

Here are the results of our survey Brug Survey 2013

We have been sitting inside the rec and getting adults and children to fill in our survey. We have had an amazing response. It seems people really love the place.

Some of the children have also drawn us lovely pictures of the things they like doing best.

If you want to fill in our survey, someone should be around at the following times:

Week starting April 8th. Mon: 6-8pm, Tues: 2-4pm, Wed. 6-8pm, Thurs. 4-6pm.











Or you can fill the survey out online at http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/XRVRXXR if you haven't already filled out the hard copy one.











We'd really appreciate if everyone could take just a few minutes to fill out the short survey.











Many thanks!

Improving the Brixton Rec for everyone

BRUG is actively pursuing Councillor Lib Peck’s commitment, made on behalf of the Council, to improve the facilities at the Brixton Rec and not demolish it.

This is our chance to push what Brixton Rec users want.

The main and most immediate issues that BRUG is raising with the Council and GLL/Better, who run the Rec, include:

• Making the ramp more welcoming
• Making the outside of the Rec more contemporary looking, informative and interesting with, for example, displays, flags and artwork
• Installing display boards inside
• Seeking disabled people’s views on their needs at the Rec
• Using planters in the internal atrium
• Celebrating and marketing the Rec more in the community

For the longer term, BRUG would like the Council and GLL/Better to consider:

• Introducing new activities (eg, boxing)
• Conducting a high standard energy audit
• Opening up the rooms on front entrance level/balcony (eg, a café)
• Introducing a Lambeth sports development programme for 12 to 16 year olds

We want and need all Brixton Rec users to participate in helping to build better facilities and services at the Centre. Would you like to work with us on any of the above or other issues relating to improving the Rec? If so, email brixtonbrug@gmail.com with your ideas.
