We are proud to announce a major £160,000 investment to enhance and modernise the gym and changing room facilities at Chingford Leisure Centre.

This project directly reflects our values, supporting customers and communities, tackling health inequalities, and ensuring we remain your local partner of choice.

What’s changing?

A more spacious, higher-quality environment. A bigger, better Gym floor.
We are expanding the gym from 166m² to 210m², creating a more open, flexible training space. This supports improved equipment layout and smoother movement throughout the gym enhancing your comfort and training experience.

Fully refurbished Changing Rooms

Our changing rooms are undergoing a full modernisation, with a fresh, contemporary design that makes your visit more comfortable from start to finish.

Designed to reduce congestion

As our community continues to grow, this upgrade supports a more spacious and efficient workout environment, helping to ease peak-time congestion and improving the overall member journey.

Project timeline: Minimising disruption

We are committed to delivering this upgrade smoothly, minimising disruption wherever possible.

Work Commenced: December 2025
Target Completion: March 2026
