Reigate and Banstead Borough Council (RBBC) has announced the launch of the new £9m Horley Leisure Centre, which has been built on the site of the former Court Lodge School.

S&P Architects were behind the design of the new complex, which has replaced the former Horley Anderson Centre and boasts a 25m, six-lane swimming pool and a training pool.

Built by Netherlands-based Pellikaan Construction, the Horley Leisure Centre also features a 45-station gym with free weights area; a four-court sports hall; and an exercise studio.

The facility offers separate male, female, family, group and disabled changing areas, while a cycle and car park is to be shared with the neighbouring Horley Town Football Club.

Greenwich Leisure will operate Horley Leisure Centre, which incorporates a number of eco-friendly measure such as a biomass heating system and aims to be accessible to all users.

RBBC executive member for healthy communities Adam De Save said: "The centre looks amazing and provides fantastic new facilities to help people of all ages and abilities keep healthy and active."

GLL's David Hughes added: "We hope that this flagship facility will help to encourage participation in physical activity and promote a healthy lifestyle."
