KING'S CORONATION WEEKEND
For the Coronation Bank Holiday weekend, Saturday 6th May to Monday 8th May, we have a series of open days planned to not only celebrate the Coronation but also to promote health and wellbeing around the borough through a range of fun activities that Camden residents of all ages and backgrounds can enjoy with their friends and families. All Camden residents are welcome to attend any (or all) of these events. We wanted to give everyone in Camden a chance to come and see what our leisure centres offer. We know that many people are curious about gyms and leisure centres, but they're not sure if it's for them. This is a great opportunity to come and try things out, meet our teams, and find out what activities are available to suit you.
There will be a range of free activities available including swimming, softplay, gym and much more! It will be a jam-packed weekend with exciting events and activities where residents can come together to celebrate sports, creativity and community. Refreshments will also be provided at all events. For more information and to register your interest, please contact camden@gll.org
Schedule of events is as follows:
Saturday 6th May:
- Oasis Sports Centre: 10:00 to 12:00 - a Coronation-themed ‘street party’ style event on our roof terrace where there will be refreshments (including mocktail making) and a variation of British games and activities.
Sunday 7th May:
- Swiss Cottage Leisure Centre - 10:30 - 15:00 - Junior Open Day. There will be a range of free activities such as table-tennis, football as well as softplay, gym and swimming.
Monday 8th May:
- Kentish Town Sports Centre - 10:30 - 15:00 - Open Day consisting of Coronation-themed arts and crafts as well as free swimming and gym. There will be swimming and fitness challenges on the day with prizes up for grabs.
The open weekend is part of a wider effort to encourage more people in Camden to get active and embrace a healthy lifestyle and we are keen to explore ways to make exercise and healthy living more accessible to everyone. We know that fitness can be daunting for some people, but we're here to make it easy and enjoyable. We hope to see lots of new faces and to help people to take the first steps on their fitness journey.
