RESIDENTS who fought to build their own community centre are looking for a fitness instructor to lead new activities.
The Jubilee Fields Community Centre was built after residents from the Jubilee Housing Estate, in Shildon, joined forces to apply for a lottery grant for what they saw as a much-needed facility.
The small centre now sits in the heart of the estate and has become the hub of the community with people of all ages using it for a host of activities from bingo, bowls and lunch clubs to youth clubs.
But aerobics classes are no longer available now that the centre is without a fitness instructor.
Barbara Fuller, product development worker at the centre, said: "We desperately need to find a fitness instructor.
"The last classes we ran were very popular and we would love to have someone come in and take maybe two or three classes a week aimed at people from the ages of 13 onwards."
Anyone who would like to organise and take classes at the centre can contact in on (01388) 775425.
