Improvement works at Bamber Bridge Leisure Centre

South Ribble Leisure Centres are undergoing a multimillion-pound improvements project, which will make greener, more energy efficient leisure centres, and will give them long-needed modernisation and upgrades.

Our wet-side changing rooms are undergoing refurbishment. While this work is happening there are some temporary changes to how swimming sessions run, and we really appreciate your understanding during this time. Here’s what you need to know:

• The pool will remain fully open during the works.
• Most poolside changing areas closed: For the next 4-6 weeks, most poolside changing rooms will be closed while work is underway. There will be a small number of cubicles still open, plus our dry-side changing facilities will be available for use
• Come swim-ready: We ask that you arrive ready to swim (costume under clothes)
• Where to store your belongings: There will be some lockers available by the pool for your belongings. We are also providing containers for customers to carry their possessions to and from the pool and dry-side changing rooms.
• After your swim: A small number of pool-side changing rooms will be available, plus our dry-side changing rooms, which have showers and toilets are available to use. Swimmers should use a towel or robe to cover themselves as they walk through reception area to the changing rooms (separate male and female), approximately 20 meters from the poolside. As part of this temporary arrangement, you’ll pass through reception to access the pool, so we recommend wearing flip-flops or similar footwear.
• Please note: When our schools are using the dry-side changing rooms, these will be temporarily closed to other users.
