The Tidworth Leisure Centre is one of Tidworth’s success stories : since opening in October 2000, it has had over half a million customers ! |
|
|
It is unique : it is an MOD building but it is operated in partnership with Kennet District Council and the Wiltshire County and Army Library Services.
As a result it can be used by both the Garrison and the local community. |
