This is not just about school holidays as there are opportunities for adults to be active too. On Easter Sunday, adults are welcome to attend a FREE Pickleball session from 2pm to 4pm. To avoid disappointment, please book on the Better UK app, through this link or at reception. On the day signups are only possible if there is capacity. If you don’t know what Pickleball is, it combines elements of tennis, table tennis and badminton. If that isn’t your racket game of choice perhaps you want to get involved in the Squash Social? That is taking place Sunday 31st March 2pm-4.40pm. With two courts for 2 hours and 40 minutes, everyone should get plenty of game time.  

Have you heard about Bat and Chat? It takes place on Tuesdays from 11am-1pm with a cost of just £2.50. You can arrive anytime as long as there is space. The session is aimed at adults, but we are welcoming children over the age of 11 during Easter holidays. If you aren’t on one of the tables, we have refreshments and games like cards and Dominos.   

If you haven’t been to our centre recently, we recommend you pop in for a visit. We have a brand-new reception installed with a comfortable social area added too.  

Here at Walthamstow Leisure Centre we offer a 68-station gym, 6 badminton courts, 2 squash courts, a studio and gymnastics hall. We offer Gymnastics lessons and hosts the Waltham Forest Gymnastics Club. This Easter there are 2-hour gymnastics lessons which are a one-off payment of £12.50. This can be used a booster for someone on our programme or as a taster for someone thinking of joining.
