Haverhill centre to reopen
Haverhill Leisure Centre in Suffolk, has reopened following a multi-million pound refurbishment.
The centre, which is operated by Abbeycroft Leisure on behalf of St Edmundsbury Borough Council, has undergone a £5.2m redevelopment of its facilities.
The centre's fitness suite, which was moved into an adjoining pod during the closure, has almost doubled in size and has been re-fitted with completely new equipment from Matrix. This is the first facility to have their brand new range with a number of new features installed.
The main sports hall has been re-fitted with a Beijing Olympics style floor, while a glass walled second floor mezzanine has been created to add a dedicated combat sports area.
Other work included the re-tiling of the swimming pool hall, the building of anew spectator seating area and the installation of new lighting and ventilation systems.
The wet change facilities have been transformed into a changing village, with individual washroom facilities for male and female, and more convenient for family use.
Warren Smyth, chief executive of Abbeycroft Leisure, operators of the centre, said: "As well as the technical side of things, we have concentrated on all the little things that make a great customer experience. Haverhill now has a really impressive community asset and the staff are looking forward to welcoming users."
