A report (making suggestions/ recommendations)
1 Read the rubric and find the key words. Answer the questions.
Your local sports centre has been given a sum of money for improvements to make it more popular with young people. You work at the sports centre and the manager has asked you to write a report making some suggestions. Write your report. Think about: decor & facilities, range of activities, publicity.
1 What is your report about?
2 Who is going to read it?
3 What should you include?
4 What style should you write in?
2 a) Read the model and complete the gaps 1-5 with an appropriate heading (A-E).
A Decor & Facilities
В Conclusion
C Range of Activities
D Introduction
E Publicity
From: Melanie Sullivan
To: James Goodwin, Manager, Malvern Sports Centre
Subject: Suggested improvements
Date: 28th November
1) Introduction
The aim of this report is to suggest ways of improving Malvern Sports Centre in order to attract more young people.
2) Decor & Facilities
The decor and some of the facilities are in need of being updated. Firstly, I would recommend that the centre be redecorated in a modern style and that the changing facilities be refurbished in particular the showers. Secondly, I strongly suggest that TVs and free Wi-Fi be installed in areas such as the cafe and gym. Doing this would make the centre more attractive to young people.
3) Range of Activities
Although the centre offers a good range of activities, they are not appealing enough to young people. More exciting sports like indoor climbing and trampolining would probably attract more interest. Furthermore, the sports hall is underused. The addition of modern fitness classes, such as Zumba, would undoubtedly be popular with younger customers.
4) Publicity
The centre is not very well-known in the community. For this reason, I would suggest an open day. This would allow young people to try out the facilities before joining, in addition, we could advertise events on social media sites. This is an inexpensive way of attracting younger customers.
5) Conclusion
All in all, I feel that improved decor and facilities, new activities and better publicity would certainly attract more young people to the centre.
b) In which section does the writer: make recommendations/suggestions? State the purpose of the report? Summarise the main points? Offer a personal opinion?
3 Find formal words/phrases in the report which mean the same as the informal ones given in the table.

Report: Suggestions for making the children’s hospital more pleasant

The aim of this report is to suggest ways of making the children’s hospital a more pleasant place for young patients.

General Environment
The general decor is not attractive to children. I would strongly recommend that the rooms be painted in bright colours and decorated with posters for children. This would make the hospital feel friendlier and more cheerful.

Facilities/Resources
There is a lack of toys and books for the children. One suggestion would be to ask for donations of toys and books. It would also be a good idea to make an indoor playroom so that children have somewhere to play.

Staff
The nurses are friendly and hardworking, but there are often not enough on duty. I would suggest employing more nurses so that the children can receive better care and attention.

To conclude, I believe that these improvements would make the hospital a much better place for children. If they were introduced, the hospital would become more comfortable and welcoming.
