A new £25m state-of-the-art leisure centre in Bridlington was officially opened by a trio of sporting celebrities earlier this summer. Olympic swimmer Rebecca Adlington OBE; badminton player Gail Emms MBE and footballer Dean Windass cut the ribbon on East Riding Leisure Bridlington, which has already attracted more than 50,000 visitors since it opened at the end of May. The new facility boasts a six-lane 25m swimming pool, a smaller learner pool, a freeform pool with water features, two water slides and swimming spectator seating for 150. It also has a changing village and a health suite with a steam room, sauna, spa pool and showers. The facility was funded by East Riding of Yorkshire Council (£20.9 million); the Coastal Communities Fund (£2.1m); and Sport England (£2m). BAM Construction was the main contractor, while FT Leisure was responsible for the design and installation of the pools. The play structure was provided by Ustigate Waterplay and the slides are by Van Egdom.

Work has begun on the rebuild of Erdington Leisure Centre in Birmingham – the first of three centres across the city to be replaced by Birmingham Community Leisure Trust (BCLT). The £8m development at Erdington will feature a 25m swimming pool, a teaching pool and is part of a £40m investment to improve leisure and exercise facilities across the city.
Building work is being undertaken by ISG Construction plc, who were awarded the contract for new leisure centres at Erdington, Northfield and Stechford. BCLT is also delivering a programme of refurbishments to Fox Hollies Leisure Centre; Cocks Moors Woods Leisure Centre; Beeches Leisure Centre and Wyndley Leisure Centre.
