TOWN councillors said there is no threat to the future of a Didcot leisure centre despite discussions over its future management.
Soll Leisure, which is contracted to run the town council-owned Willowbrook Leisure Centre until 2012, confirmed it was looking at different management options for the centre.
The firm has failed to renew its contract to manage South Oxfordshire District Council’s eight leisure centres, including the Didcot Leisure Centre, Didcot Wave and Castle Leisure Centre in Wallingford, which it has run for 10 years.
Greenwich Leisure Ltd will take over the running of the facilities in April for five years, subcontracting the day to day running to its partner Nexus Community Leisure.
Didcot town councillors have reassured the public there is no risk of the facility in Ladygrove folding.
