Have fun and get fit

We have some fantastic leisure centres in Lewisham – they are more than just gyms and there is something for everyone this summer!

Being active is directly linked to wellbeing and mental health as well as the many physical health benefits. Lewisham residents have access to a large range of fitness activities at six leisure centres across the borough.

Ladywell Arena is open to the public!

Now open to the public for Pay and Play sessions, Ladywell Arena is a multi-use sports venue in the heart of Catford, including a six lane floodlit athletics track and floodlit grass pitch. It’s an outdoor hub for sports, training, events and home to many local community sports teams.

Physical Activity Referral Scheme (PARS)

Physical activity plays an essential role in preventing and managing a wide range of health conditions. Health professionals, including GPs, can refer patients to these low-cost programmes in Lewisham to help improve, manage or prevent health conditions such as diabetes, hypertension and depression. Please speak to your GP or nurse who will be able to provide a referral form for our leisure centres.
