As a charitable social enterprise, we're committed to improving our service in your local community. That's why, following the incredible upgrade of the sports hall last year, we are excited to let you know that we'll be carrying out a major redevelopment of Newham Leisure Centre.
Health and Fitness Upgrades
- Upgrading the main fitness class studio with replacement flooring, new lighting, AV and general redecoration
- Converting the creche room downstairs to a multi-use room for Spin Classes and children’s parties
- Reconfiguring the gym layout into dedicated workout zones and upgrading all kit with brand new top-of-the-range Technogym equipment
Soft Play Installation
- Building a brand new three-storey immersive soft play for children under 10, with a dedicated area for under 2s
- Installing a new cafe, to service members and visitors to the new soft play
How long will the improvements take?
The redevelopment will start on 10th March 2025, focusing on the first floor initially. Once completed, upgrades will begin downstairs, and we hope to have the whole project finished within 16-18 weeks.
Disruptions to service
From 10th March there will be some disruption to services at the centre, such as the temporary closure of the upstairs gym and studios. But don't worry, we'll work hard to minimise the effects on you and will move as much of our fitness class programme to the sports hall and Newham Multi-Sports Hall by the athletics track.
We will also be moving equipment from the upper gym to the lower gym to ensure all your exercise needs are catered for, including our dedicated gym sessions (such as Junior Gym), however, please be aware that Women's Only sessions will not be taking place during the temporary closure.
We aim to have the main fitness class studio and the upstairs gym reopened within 8-12 weeks.
