Wednesday Social Coffee Mornings

At Kentish Town Sports Centre we pride ourselves in being a part of our community and making our leisure centre as accessible as possible. This is achieved through our timetable and amazing work from our centre team. 

Every Wednesday morning from 10.30am - 12pm we host a Social Coffee Morning in the viewing gallery (to the right hand side of our reception desk). There is free coffee, tea and biscuits available, and no booking required.

We know that staying socially active is just as important as staying physically active. Being part of a community helps boost well-being, reduce loneliness, and create lasting friendships. At Oasis, we want to provide a welcoming space where you can meet new people, share stories, and enjoy a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.

You can also take this opportunity to interact with our staff and ask any questions you may have. 

Join us for a fun chat and socialise with other senior members! 

 

Swimming

We offer free swimming for Camden residents aged 60+ on a pay as you go membership at Kentish Town Sports Centre, Swiss Cottage Leisure Centre, Oasis Sports Centre and Pancras Square Leisure, on weekdays between 6.30am and 12pm.

If you have limited mobility and find accessing the pool difficult, we have a Poolpod in our Grafton Pool & a hoist in both our Willes Pool & Grafton Pool. Please speak to a member of staff or visit better.org.uk/lp/pool-pod to discover more.

For more information on any of the above activities, please email KentishTown@GLL.ORG or speak to a member of staff in one of our Better Camden centres.

The Gym

Our Gym is inclusive to everyone and is divided into different sections the weights area, stretch area, resistance machines and cardio machines. Cardio machines (which raise your heart rate) such as rowers, bikes, cross trainers and treadmills can be used to improve your overall fitness.

Resistance machines and weights can be used to improve your overall strength. All of our weights and weight machines start at a very light weight, so no matter how strong you are, you’ll be safe to use them. We also have a functional space equipped with all the space and equipment to fulfil your needs
