Indoor leisure facilities in Bedford will reopen on Monday April 12

Indoor leisure facilities at Robinson Pools & Fitness Kempston Pool, John Bunyan Sports & Fitness, and Bedford International Athletics Stadium will reopen from Monday, 12 April, Fusion Lifestyle and Bedford Borough Council have announced.

With restrictions starting to lift, the reopening of leisure centres means that residents in Bedford Borough can once again enjoy their favourite fitness fix, including indoor swimming and going to the gym.

The centres will continue to operate in line with government safety guidelines and those planning to visit will still be required to book and pay online, to ensure contact is minimised at each centre and allowing for the track and trace process to be implemented.

Gym users will be asked to arrive ready to work out, and swimmers with their costumes under their clothes, ready to go.

These measures, combined with meticulous cleaning routines, are designed to keep customers safe and offer complete confidence to use the facilities when they return to the centre.

Anthony Cawley, Director of Operations at Fusion said, “It feels wonderful to finally be able to reopen our centres again.

"We know the communities local to our facilities can’t wait to kick-start their favourite fitness regimes and our teams across the borough can’t wait to welcome them back.

"We've worked hard over the past months to ensure our centres continue to offer the very best facilities and that our customers can return with confidence and safety”

All centres will be open daily, but please refer to the individual centre’s websites for opening hours. Bookings can be made up to seven days in advance, via download of the Fusion Lifestyle app or visit www.fusion-lifestyle.com to register and use the online booking facility.
