Transforming leisure services

We’re investing £105 million over the ten years to improve our leisure centres, programmes and services. This is the largest investment of its kind in the UK. It is a unique opportunity to improve the health and wellbeing of our city, by delivering a quality service that meets the needs of our communities.

This investment forms part of our £400 million physical investment programme.

We're keen that each of the developments offer a unique selling point (USP) which will encourage people to move across the city to use the different facilities.

Centre USPs

The leisure centres are managed by GLL under the Better brand. GLL is a charitable social enterprise that reinvests all profits back into the centres that it operates. It is the largest public leisure centre operator in the UK and manages over 150 leisure centres.
