The new leisure centre will provide residents with a range of high-quality, modern sports and community amenities to meet the needs of Leighton-Linslade’s growing population. It will accommodate a significantly increased scale of facilities including a large health and fitness area (gym), and significantly increased pool space with an eight lane 25metre pool, a learner pool and a confidence pool; offering swimming options for all age groups.
The building has been designed to minimise energy consumption and reduce carbon emissions. It will feature electric car charging points and improved access to sustainable travel options, aligning with the Council's Sustainability Strategy and its goal of achieving being carbon-zero by 2030.
