If you go down to the gym today

Loddon Valley Leisure Centre’s gym has been refurbished and enlarged and now boasts additional fitness stations as well as the latest TEAMBEATS TM equipment.

There’s more room for varied training, and equipment is easier to access. There’s two new studios offering activities including holistic classes such as Body Balance, yoga, Barre and Stages cycle.

Our partner Places Leisure is investing £2million to enhance the Lower Earley centre to give a greater choice of sport, fitness and wellbeing.

Work has started on the next phases which will focus on refreshing the café and reception areas, a new two-storey adventure play area with seating for parents, and improved toilets.

Bulmershe Leisure Centre update

Construction of this new £14million leisure centre in Woodley has now started.

It will include a six-lane 25-metre swimming pool, a teaching pool with movable floor so larger numbers of groups of ages and abilities can use it, a bigger gym plus a ‘live well’ (long-term condition) gym, a four-court sports hall, and an additional studio and café. It’s being designed to benefit the whole community with its accessible and flexible facilities, and preventative health services.

It’s due to open next summer and be run by our partner Places Leisure.
