Oswestry Leisure Centre to open its doors
Shropshire Council has confirmed that a number of free activities are to be made available to help mark the opening of the new Oswestry Leisure Centre on 1 October.
Originally due to be called the Oswald Park Lifestyle Centre, the new £8m complex features a 25m competition-standard swimming pool and a learner pool, as well as a fitness suite.
A sports hall; an activities studio; and a multi-function room will also be on offer at the new Oswestry Leisure Centre, which has been delivered by Graham Construction.
The construction firm took over responsibility for building the venue after Shrewsbury-based Frank Galliers left the project in January 2010 due to "financial difficulties".
Shropshire Council cabinet member for active and healthy lifestyles Steve Charmley said: "It has been a long and sometimes frustrating process, but I am pleased that after so many years of planning and effort, the new leisure centre is finally here."
