Preparations for the multi-million-pound refurbishment of the Walnuts Leisure Centre are progressing. The entire centre is due to close prior to building works beginning in January 2025 on a revised schedule, as part of the council’s Health and Wellbeing Strategy, aimed at providing local residents with affordable, sustainable and modern leisure facilities.
The upgrade will include improvements to the gym and provide a reconfigured competition-length pool. A new studio providing power-assisted equipment will be introduced to support those with mobility issues or undergoing rehabilitation. A pool pod and a Changing Places facility will also enhance accessibility. The changing rooms will be upgraded and a completely new heating system will be installed to secure the centre for the future.
Walnuts Leisure Centre will close for the duration of the council’s refurbishment works, and we will update you soon on the final day the centre will be open for use.
Mytime Active is with you all the way, here to help you every day
Even though Walnuts Leisure Centre will be temporarily closed, this does not mean the classes and activities our customers love will be stopped.

We will relocate our customers favourite activities including the gym, exercise classes and swimming lessons to convenient locations, including Crofton Hall and Darrick Wood Swimming Pool, all staffed by the same friendly, familiar faces from the usual Walnuts Leisure Centre team.
Mytime Active is still here for you and dedicated to supporting your needs. Our goal is to continue to keep you active, minimise any disruption, and provide the same great experiences you’ve come to enjoy at Walnuts.
We remain your biggest cheerleader, supporting you every step of the way until Walnut Leisure Centre reopens, ensuring you can stay active, connected and cared for. We will be in touch with customers with further information about service changes soon.
