The opening date for a brand new teaching pool at a Nottinghamshire leisure centre has been confirmed as part of a £5.5 million transformation of the facility. Work at the Hucknall Leisure Centre over the past few years has included an upgrade of its gym, a brand new café and reception area and a new cycling studio.
The project has been part of Ashfield District Council's broader £22.5 million transformation of its leisure facilities across the area, which has also included the opening of a new centre in Kirkby. At Hucknall, a new teaching pool has now been completed to complete the investment in the centre.
The council has announced the new pool, at the leisure centre in Linby Road, will officially open on Saturday (June 24), with an opening pool party also being hosted on July 15. The party will include free bookable swimming sessions, free face painting and balloon modelling.
