Business & Partnerships Committee 21.05.2012<br />
• CBP 8 – To involve 10,000 people through Active <strong>Gravesham</strong>, summer holiday<br />
programme and Go <strong>Gravesham</strong> activities each year.<br />
The Committee considered the following areas for review:-<br />
• CBP 6 – To increase the swimming usage at the leisure centres by 3 per cent (from<br />
the 2010/11 baseline) by 2014/15;<br />
• CBP 12 – Sustain highest level of attendance at Heritage attractions – Chantry<br />
Heritage Centre/New Fort and Civil Defence Bunker.<br />
The Chair, in noting the report also put forward the following suggestions as to how to the<br />
presentation of the quarterly reports can be improved for greater clarity and information:-<br />
• provide a definition of the ‘users’ e.g. for gym and swimming usage;<br />
• examine the limitations of the current data software e.g. inability to show an accurate<br />
% where the outturn is greater than 200 per cent;<br />
• present quarterly figures as numerical (in a new column) as well as cumulative so<br />
that the progress made in each individual quarter is clear;<br />
• present the data in a simplified format;<br />
• investigate whether a detailed breakdown of the figures is possible (e.g. age, sex of<br />
‘users’) and present this information below the data.<br />
The Chair also summarised the following suggestions and requests for information made by<br />
the Cabinet Committee:-<br />
• forward feedback to the Committee on the outcome of the ‘multi-agency meeting’<br />
mentioned under the following area of focus: 10 - Promoting healthy lifestyles<br />
amongst young people;<br />
• offer suggestions and ideas as to how the volunteers of the Civil Defence Bunker<br />
(New Tavern Fort) attraction can be better supported and improve marketing and<br />
signage to the Bunker;<br />
• draw a plan of action once all data is received/presented to consider what action can<br />
be taken in the light of these figures;<br />
• consider the use of a feedback portal for the public, made available via the<br />
<strong>Gravesham</strong> <strong>Borough</strong> <strong>Council</strong> website for public opinion on <strong>Gravesham</strong> <strong>Borough</strong><br />
<strong>Council</strong> actions and events.<br />
