Refurbishment Updates

In partnership with Hillingdon Council, we’re pleased to announce that extensive refurbishment work started in May 2022 across the Health & Fitness areas at Highgrove Pool & Fitness Centre.  The works continue to be staggered across the studios, gym and dry side changing rooms.  We’ll continue to keep you up to date with regular updates on this page, so make sure you check back here from time to time or keep a look out on our social media channels.

We appreciate that there will be disruption to your visits to us over the next few months, but we hope to keep this to a minimum.  As always if you have any questions or queries, please feel free to email us.

Functional Zone

We are excited to announce that our brand new Functional Zone is now open! Located on the top floor of the gym. 

Find out more

Gym

The gym area will be the biggest transformation in the centre, with a new look and layout.

The free weights area has been relocated to the ground floor. In it’s place will be a new and exciting programmable functional training area, specialising in innovative, high-intensity group workouts that are fast, fun, and results-driven. 

Male and female dry side changing rooms

With the removal of the sauna and steam rooms both male and female dry side changing rooms will receive a full refurbishment to give customers a more comfortable changing environment. The female changing rooms will consist of 6 vanity units and will also include straighteners and hairdryers. Both changing rooms are now open.

Group Cycle Studio

The Group Cycle studio has had a full refurbishment, complete with upgraded LED coloured lighting and an upgrade of the air conditioning units.  As well as a complete redecoration and an improved layout will mean the number of bikes per class will go up to 28 from the existing 20. 

 

Studio

The main studio has received a complete refurbishment; with upgraded lighting, flooring, air conditioning units as well as redecoration throughout.

Book a fitness class

Sauna and Steam Rooms

We will be removing the Sauna and Steam room cabins from both male and female dry side changing rooms.  We will be replacing them with a brand new Sauna cabin and a brand new Steam room cabin, both relocating to poolside.

These works are due to start once the studio and gym works have been completed and this page will be updated once we have the final date.

General centre area updates

Across the rest of the centre, you will see redecoration as well as improvements to flowing in certain areas.

FAQs

When will the works start and how long will they take?

The works are scheduled to last for a 22 week period starting Wednesday 4th May 2022. First up is the Group Cycle studio which we anticipate to take 15 days, with all Group Cycle sessions and bikes relocated during this time.

We will keep you updated on the areas that are affected by the project as they happen, so please keep a look out in-centre for updates too.

 

Will there be any disruption to my visits whilst the work takes place?

For the majority of the project, we are anticipating that the work will be contained within an area of the centre that will not cause too much disruption.

However the studio and areas of the gym will be affected.

When work begins on Studio 1, we will unfortunately be unable to run any fitness classes during this time, other then Group Cycle classes.  As work takes place in specific areas of the gym, a reduced number of equipment will be available for use.  We will of course keep you informed of access to these areas when the project begins and dates are confirmed for each area.

 

How does this affect my membership?

To ensure your workout isn’t impacted too much, we would like to confirm that all members will have their memberships upgraded so that they will be able access facilities at the other Better leisure centres across Hillingdon including:

  • Hillingdon Sports and Leisure Complex
  • Botwell Green Sports and Leisure Centre
  • Queensmead Sports Centre (open after 4pm Monday - Friday)

We thank you in advance for your patience and co-operation during this time.
