The Forum centre opened in 1971. It houses a library, leisure centre, swimming pool, cafe and other amenities and has recently been renovated in a more modern style. For thirty years it also housed the Forum Theatre, but this closed in 2002; a health clinic and an adult education facility now occupy its space. The building has been remodelled to focus on four integrated service elements; leisure, adult learning, childcare and health on one site - provided by a variety of public and private sector partners. The inside now features a light, airy, central concourse which, as well as providing access to the various zones within the Forum, also features a one-stop reception area, a café, pharmacy and a newsagent. The entrances and concourse regularly incorporate public artworks designed by artists working with local people; ten of the “Bee in the City” mini-bees painted by local schoolchildren were on display when this photograph was taken.
