The Centre prides itself in its friendly and relaxed atmosphere and welcomes everyone who visits the Centre.
Our Centre has been open since September 1996
and has established itself as a popular, cost-effective and high-quality facility which is open to everyone!
The Centre’s location on Purbeck Road (off Hills Road), adjacent to Hills Road Sixth Form College, makes it
ideally placed to serve the local community. You can beat the rush hour and come in for a pre- or post-work
gym session, arrange a lunchtime squash match with a colleague, meet new people through our social badminton
sessions or even use the facilities at the weekend with your family or friends. Martial arts, Pilates,
children’s activities, 5-a-side, table tennis and much more, rest assured, there is something here for everyone.
