Pembrokeshire County Council’s Cabinet is being asked to consider the future of the Tenby Social Activity Centre.
A report to next Monday’s Cabinet meeting (November 30th) from the Director of Social Services and Leisure seeks Cabinet approval to consult on future options for the centre, known as The Avenue.
The centre is one of three day centres for adults with learning disabilities in the County.
Director Pam Marsden said the proposed move is set against the background of a shift in care away from dependency to ensure that people are supported to live as independently as possible.
“The Social Services and Well-being Act (Wales) details a vision which is about maximising independence and connecting people to their communities,” she said.
“This coupled with a rise in expectations and demand sits alongside the need for the Council to deliver significant efficiency savings over the next few years.”
If Cabinet Members approve, the proposal will go out to consultation.
