A Community Hub – Run by Volunteers.

Thanks to all those who helped us by completing the survey. Over a hundred replies is very encouraging and most of the suggestions and comments are helpful and guide us for the future.
It is worth noting that over the summer we have achieved:
Refurbishment of the Ladies and Gents toilets, a complete makeover.
Refurbishment of the sports Changing Rooms, with new showers and toilets, and redecorated.
Redecoration of the upstairs room, now housing The Treehouse Nursery, and installation of air conditioning.
Redecoration and reflooring of the circulation areas downstairs.
Refreshing with tougher paint the walls in the hall, where they had become marked.
Installed full Covid-19 precautions, signage, twelve automatic hand sanitisers, and of course new hand washing facilities. That ticks a few of the boxes!
Other improvements requested in the survey by yourselves included:
More opening hours for the bar, better food and drink:- note we now have a full premises licence.
Family and community events:- we hope to restart these as soon as Covid allows.
Fitness classes:- we have Freestyle dance, Karate, and new Pilates, Bootcamp and Zumba.
Cinema:- watch this space! Licences and permissions in place. Bookings invited shortly.
Craft and artistic clubs, computers, counselling, physiotherapy, badminton. If you wish to run any of these or know someone who does, please get in touch.
We are now considering the way forward, with plans for outdoor activities in these troubled times.

Sports England

Today saw a visit from Kelly at Sport England to the centre. Her guidance will most certainly help us in our plans for delivering a greater range of sport and indoor/outdoor activities for all ages to Bubwith and the surrounding communities. Keep a look out for further developments! It’s exciting!

Daytime Reduction in Main Hall Hire Charges

Stop Press!!!!!

Reduction in Main Hall Hire Cost – Half price! In view of the current COVID – 19 situation we would like to offer, for a limited period until this awful virus issue is very much improved, the hire of the Main Hall from Monday – Friday 09.00 – 17.00 at HALF PRICE.

This means that our normal hourly rate of £18.50 will be reduced to £9.25 / hour. We believe that this will encourage suitable social distancing within groups that otherwise would consider using alternate smaller areas. Please arrange booking in the normal way. Stay safe out there.

We’re Open!! Monday, 31st August, 2020.

Monday, 31st August 2020: We would like to announce the re opening of the Bubwith Sports & Leisure Centre after the COVID lockdown. Sophie Brooke from Feathersteps Dance School cut the ribbon. That evening was the first of her dancing classes, she was permitted to allow 9 couples. Since March, the Bubwith Sports & Leisure Centre has been completed redecorated, has had new ladies and gents loos installed, the football and cricket changing rooms have been repainted and to top this The Treehouse Children’s Nursery have taken up residence upstairs.

All great news for the village of Bubwith and the surrounding areas.

The Treehouse Day Nursery

We are proud to welcome The Treehouse Day Nursery to Bubwith Leisure & Sports Centre. The upstairs room and staircase has been completed redecorated ready for their arrival. Please take a look.

Reopening of the Bubwith Leisure & Sports Centre

Due to refurbishment delays, the Centre, which had planned to open this coming week, will not now be available for another two weeks. We apologise for this, but the supply of materials to our contractors has meant that we couldn’t move as fast as we would have hoped. Please keep an eye on these pages for updates.

A Summer Message from the Committee.

Given the current Covid situation, we feel that we do not yet have the green light to re-open. Many of our activities involve deep breaths, in and out, expenditure of energy, closer contact than advised and, in some cases, the teachers shouting at us!
Outdoor activities are fine though, at no charge, but please remember social distancing, no dogs, and no access to the Leisure Centre.
We have been using the time to make improvements inside, so by the time we allow you in again we will have sanitisers to protect us and you, and new toilets for ladies and gents, and in the sports changing rooms. Hart’s of Cottingham are doing a very good job, and all is on time to be completed within 4 weeks as per plan.
We look forward to the day when it is safe to see you all again.
Stay safe.
