We are pleased to share that a £550K investment is on the way to enhance the Soft Play and Group Cycle facilities at Swiss Cottage Leisure Centre. This investment reflects our commitment to improving our offerings for the local community and enhancing your leisure experience.
Soft Play Improvements
The improvements include a removal of the existing soft play area and we will install a brand-new 3-story structure. This newly improved soft play will give children different challenges to overcome throughout each level, making the experience more engaging whilst enabling a higher capacity of users, allowing more fun for all!
With the increased size, there will be more space for children of different ages to use the facility. For children under 10, the new 3-storey soft play area includes interactive play equipment, slide, seating areas for parents and a dedicated toddler area so that children can explore a range of different materials, textures and colours in a safe a secure way.
Work began on Tuesday 27th August and the new soft play will be open from Monday 28th October.
Group Cycle Improvements
Group Cycle is one of Swiss Cottage Leisure Centre's most popular Fitness Classes and, with this proposed investment, we aim to increase the size of the current group cycle studio to allow for more than double the existing number of bikes available for members to use in one class. Whilst doing this, we aim to take the Group Cycle studio lights, music and atmosphere up another level to ensure that you are more motivated than ever to enjoy the class.
We aim to start work on upgrading the group Cycle Studio mid-August 2024. Whilst service improvements are being made, temporary arrangements for group cycle classes will be made to ensure that we are delivering on our most popular class. Please feel assured that the centre team will work to keep any disruption to a minimum and work along-side contractors to complete the works in a timely manner. Full information will be made available here once confirmed.
Reception and Centre Access
To allow us to extend and upgrade the soft play, there will be some changes to the entrance to Swiss Cottage Leisure Centre planned for September. The main entrance and exit from Adelaide Road will be permanently closed and the main entrance and exit to the centre will be from the Swiss Cottage open space. We're also going to give the reception area an upgrade with new access control gates, a conceirge point-of-service and a general refresh of the whole area.
