Brierton Sports Centre partial refurbishment
Exciting improvements are on the way!
Brierton Sports Centre’s gym and studio are currently closed while we carry out a full refurbishment of both spaces. This upgrade will include brand‑new Technogym equipment and an enhanced audio‑visual experience, with improved lighting and sound systems to elevate your workouts.

The same Technogym equipment being installed at Brierton is already available at Headland Sports Centre!
Why not head over and get familiar with the kit? Our team is on hand to show you how everything works.
What's still open?
You can still enjoy a wide range of activities during the refurbishment:
- Fitness classes in the Sports Hall, North Gym and Dance Studio
- Sports Hall – open as normal

All other facilities will continue to operate as usual.
