A new health and wellbeing community Hub for the residents of Clay Cross and the surrounding area.
Introducing Clay Cross Active, an unrivalled state-of-the-art fully accessible and family friendly leisure centre incorporating a community hub at the heart of Clay Cross for the residents in the town and surrounding areas. A place for the whole community to take part in physical activity and relax in the café area. Health and support services being on-site make this a real hub for everybody.
£7 million of Town Deal funding contributes towards the £24 million investment of Clay Cross Active, including £2.14m funded by Sport England, to create the cutting edge centre our communities have been asking for. Visitors will be able to enjoy top-of-the-line equipment for their wide range of physical activities - the gym alone will feature over 100 pieces of equipment. The new facilities will be much greener with the new build being low carbon and low energy, leading the leisure industry in being environmentally friendly.
Construction started in spring 2023 on the site of the now-demolished Sharley Park Leisure Centre and is expected to be completed by 2025.
Stay tuned for more updates on one of the most exciting developments Clay Cross has seen in years.
