A CONSERVATIVE councillor has called for an energy audit of a leisure centre.

The Dolphin Centre, in Darlington, is presently undergoing a £3.2m refurbishment.

It will see alterations to the changing rooms and fitness studios, improved meeting and conference rooms, and the registry office and marriage hall will be based there.

Yesterday, Councillor Jim Ruck asked if there could be an assessment of energy efficiency as part of the work.
