Poynton councillor Jos Saunders has welcomed news that Cheshire East are planning major investments at the Leisure Centre. The business case has been approved and contractors will be sought for a wide range of improvements:
- Extended gym (80 stations)
- New reception, café and soft play area
- Multiple flexible studio spaces for group exercise and health programmes
- Group cycling studio
- Refurbished wet side changing rooms
- Refurbished dry side changing rooms – compliant to Football Foundation standards
- Extended car park
- Lift to first floor
- AstroTurf pitch and grass pitch improvements (in partnership with CEC Education Team, Poynton High School, Cheshire FA & Football Foundation)
The proposed developments will provide a range of new and refurbished facilities that are both fully accessible for young people and improve safeguarding.
