Camden Leisure Centres - reopening information
Camden’s leisure centres, gyms and swimming pools are preparing to reopen to both members and non-members on Saturday 25 July 2020 following the latest Government guidance.
We are working closely with leisure partner and operator Better Leisure to make sure facilities are Covid-19 secure ahead of reopening. Services and activities will be re-introduced in phases to manage capacity and maximise safety, starting with gym, swim and group exercise.
The outdoor swimming pool at Oasis Sports Centre reopened on Monday 20 July. To visit the pool, you’ll need to book a slot.
Keeping Safe in Camden Leisure Centres
To keep residents and staff safe, Better Leisure has introduced a number of safety procedures which can be viewed in this short video.
Leisure centre users must pre-book gym, swim or fitness classes and pay online remotely or at the centres by card only. Each leisure centre user will only be allowed one hour on site for each activity. Users may attend one activity type per day effectively allowing customers to attend 3 sessions, provided they pre-book and leave the centre.
Physical changes to the environment in our leisure facilities to enable social distancing will include:
- Reducing the amount of gym stations and relocating some equipment to other rooms (eg squash courts) to allow a 2 metre gap between users
- Reallocating sports halls as studio space, increasing capacity for group exercise
- Only changing rooms in swimming pools will reopen initially
- Doubling the width swimming lanes
- 3 metre individual bays will be created within exercise studios to ensure a minimum of 2 metres between users during classes
- Separate entrance and exits
