Speller Metcalfe have been appointed to undertake the multi-million pound redevelopment of Brough Park Leisure Centre.
This is the latest in a series of schemes being delivered by Alliance Leisure for Staffordshire Moorlands District Council, forming part of the wider levelling Up funded regeneration of Leek Town Centre.
The centre will provide a range of modern services to support both physical and mental wellbeing to better reflect the needs of the local community.
The current four-lane swimming pool will be replaced with a new 25m, six-lane pool as well as a larger teaching pool. The gym will be expanded from 35 stations to 60, while a second group exercise studio and group cycling studio will be added to increase the fitness provision.
One of the existing squash courts will be transformed into a new Community Wellness Suite. This space will support referral-based services, offering specialist equipment and trained instructors to help improve our health outcomes for individuals with specific medical conditions.
Other key features include a new indoor activity soft play, family and accessible Changing Places facilities and a new reception area which will overlook both swimming pools and include a café with seating for 60 people.
The refurbishment aims to transform the centre into an all-electric facility with air source heat pumps, LED lighting and solar panels.
The Brough Park development is being delivered by Alliance Leisure through the UK Leisure Framework.
