Major gym refurbishments completed at Bourne and Westgate leisure centres

Members at Bourne Leisure Centre and Westgate Leisure Centre are now enjoying upgraded fitness facilities following the completion of significant investment programmes designed to enhance the workout experience and support more people on their health and wellbeing journeys.

 Over £800k has been invested into improving the gyms at both centres, with the introduction of the latest fitness equipment, improved training spaces and a fresh new look throughout the facilities.

 At Westgate Leisure Centre, members can now benefit from an expanded functional fitness area, a larger free weights zone, upgraded cardio equipment, new plate-loaded strength equipment and industry-leading, AI powered EGYM smart training circuit. The refurbishment also includes a dedicated Abs Company circuit, a new multi-purpose training rig, air bikes and ski ergs, alongside new flooring, improved lighting and a complete redecoration of the gym spaces.

 Bourne Leisure Centre customers now have access to brand-new indoor cycling bikes to upgrade the group exercise experience. And in line with Westgate, they will also benefit from the introduction of EGYM equipment.

 Matt Low, Contract Manager for centre operators Leisure Solutions Community Trust, said:

"We're delighted to unveil our newly refurbished gyms at Bourne and Westgate Leisure Centres. These investments reflect our commitment to helping our communities stay active by providing modern, welcoming and inspiring spaces where people of all ages and abilities can achieve their fitness goals.”
