Control of leisure services in Neath Port Talbot will be transferred from Celtic Leisure to Neath Port Talbot Council by April 2023, it was announced at a council meeting on Thursday July 28. The decision was made following the approval of plans that were first poposed in February.
It is hoped by council bosses that the move, which will include full control of all leisure centres and other facilities in the borough, will allow for "a more coherent approach to opening hours service delivery in centres across the borough".
Facilities that will be transferred in the move will include Aberavon Leisure and Fitness Centre and Aqua splash park, as well as Neath Sports Centre and Pontardawe Swimming Pool.
