North City Family and Fitness Centre is at the heart of the community in Harpurhey containing a fully equipped gym, fitness class studio, swimming pool with swimming lessons, sauna, steam room and spa pool. Over £450,000 has been invested to extend and refurbish the gym including brand new equipment, a new virtual studio and a refreshed health suite.  There's something for the little ones too with a new £60,000, 4 tier soft play area. It features a wide range of soft play activities to keep the children entertained for hours including ball pits, tunnels, slides and obstacles. We also help over 1000 adults and children to learn to love the water each and every week on our swim school programme. This centre is part of a unique collection of community and elite facilities governed by MCRactive, a not for profit organisation established and overseen by Manchester City Council. It is operated by Better under the MCRactive brand.
