Images of the new Neath Leisure centre have been released this week ahead of the grand opening of the building on January 30, 2023. Once open, the town centre building will feature a six-lane, 25m swimming pool with associated learner pool, two group exercise studios, a 100-station gym, a health suite, retail floorspace, child care facilities, a café and a modern library.
The new library, which will be opening on February 1, will have 30,000 books, 16 public computers, Wi-Fi throughout, as well as a dedicated children’s library, family history research area and local studies collection, with two meeting rooms and self-service kiosks.
Funded by Neath Port Talbot Council, the multi-million pound development has been built by contractor Kier, and is designed to have a beneficial impact on the town centre, increasing sustainability, and footfall and providing a major boost for health and wellbeing.
