Rotherham could have to cut the number of youth centres due to the
rising costs of maintaining buildings, according to the Local Democracy
Reporting Service.

If the proposals are accepted by the council’s cabinet, it would mean
the end for children’s centres in Park View, Broom Valley and Wath,
leaving nine others across the borough.

The way the proposed changes have been structured means there would be
no loss of frontline jobs.

New venues for the services would be sought, including libraries and
schools.

The council said the changes are being forced upon it due to a reduced
income.
