Strategic planning

The proposed Life Centre seeks to replace facilities at Central Park Leisure Pools, the Mayflower Centre, and the ice rink and pools provision at Plymouth Pavilions. In planning for the new Life Centre and its facilities, a range of strategic documents have been developed. These include:

Central Park Area Action Plan

The Central Park Area Action Plan is part of a portfolio of documents called the Local Development Framework (LDF). When adopted, Plymouth's LDF together with the Regional Spatial Strategy, will form the statutory Development Plan for this area.

The Central Park Area Action Plan is being produced because of the need to substantially improve the environmental qualities of the park, improving both the recreational and sporting facilities that exist there and to create a premier park for the people of Plymouth to enjoy. The Central Park Area Action Plan will give statutory basis for these changes to happen.

Plymouth Swimming Facilities Strategy

The Plymouth Swimming Facilities Strategy considers the quality and availability of all swimming facilities within the city boundary.

Playing Pitch Strategy

The Plymouth Playing Pitch Strategy considers the benefits for everyone with an interest in pitch sports, playing pitches and their development.
