Fusion Lifestyle Saves Historic Baths With Newcastle Move


Fusion Lifestyle has announced it is to open its first operation in the North of England as it takes over the running of the historic Newcastle City Hall, Pools and Turkish Baths complex The Grade II listed complex, built in 1928 to serve the population of Newcastle upon Tyne, was shut in 2013


and a campaign group ‘Reopen Newcastle Turkish Baths and Pool’ established.


Fusion will now work to reopen the baths and to create a destination health and wellbeing centre in 2017 – following a £5m refurbishment of facilities.


This announcement comes together with the revelation that Fusion is also to restore the Grade II listed Art-Deco Broomhill Pool lido in Ipswich which has been shut since 2002. Peter Kay, Chief Executive of Fusion Lifestyle, said: “There has been a tendency over the past few decades to neglect or shut our historic leisure facilities.


“However over the past few years, particularly as many are threatened with closure, people are waking up to the fact that these valuable resources may be lost forever and are recognising that they are important community assets.


“At Fusion Lifestyle we have established ourselves as key players in breathing the life back into these assets and making them suitable for 21st century use.


“It is a pleasure to see these historic leisure facilities restored and being made use of by the communities that they were designed for.” Fusion now operates seven lidos, including Brockwell Lido in South London, Hillingdon Lido in Uxbridge, Hinksey Outdoor Pool in Oxford, Park Road Pools and Wycombe Rye Lido in High Wycombe. Fusion’s move into Newcastle will see it partner with Newcastle’s Theatre Royal Trust who will run the City Hall entertainment programme while Fusion manages leisure facilities and the overall building.


The Grade II listed site contains a concert hall, swimming pools and one of around a dozen Turkish Baths left in the country. Fusion’s plans for the Newcastle City Hall, Pool and Turkish Baths will see restoration and refurbishment of pool and Turkish bath facilities, with the addition of a gym, studios, spa and café to convert the site into a modern health and wellbeing facility for the city.
