The Roundhouse is due to open in November

The development of a new leisure and community centre in Braddan is 'moving along well'. 

That's according to the centre manager who says 'The Roundhouse' has had 'stumbling blocks' but they're aiming to open on 17 November.

It's had a number of delays and the commissioners are asking the Department of Infrastructure for £3.4 million and the potential for rates to be increased to pay for it.

The development will also see the creation of around 25 jobs and provide a range of leisure, health and community services including a pharmacy and a dentist.

Our Local Democracy Reporter Emma Draper has been speaking to Cassi McAllister:

The leisure centre is located on the Strang Corner Field next to Palatine Health Centre.
