Leisure Pool set for major investment and improvement programme 

Leisure World’s Leisure Pool will temporarily close from late September 2026 as part of a significant investment programme. 

The improvement programme will deliver upgrades across the Leisure Pool, including pool relining, refurbished changing facilities, improved air ventilation, a new splash pad, upgraded water features and improvements to the flumes. These improvements are designed to create a more modern, welcoming and enjoyable experience for customers while supporting the long-term future of the facility.  

The investment forms part of Leisure World’s ongoing commitment to improving facilities, responding to customer feedback and providing high-quality leisure experiences for residents and visitors. 

Further details will be shared ahead of the closure. 

* Rapids operate between 11am and 3pm at weekends and school holidays at our discretion and are subject to weather conditions.
