New leisure centre set for Sharley Park
Work got underway in February to replace Sharley Park Leisure Centre in Clay Cross with a new community hub in a project led by Alliance Leisure.
The £24.1m scheme, which includes leisure and health services at the very heart of it, forms a key part of North East Derbyshire District Council’s Clay Cross Town Investment Plan.
Designed by GT3 Architects, the new Clay Cross Active hub will deliver fit-for-purpose activity, health and support services in one site for the 20,000 residents of Clay Cross and the surrounding area.
The development will be coordinated by Alliance Leisure through the UK Leisure Framework, which is managed by Denbighshire Leisure, with ISG acting as principle build contractor.
Featuring solar PVs and air source heat pumps, the centre will be low carbon and facilities include a 100-station gym, a four court sports hall and a 25m swimming pool with six lanes, among other services including medical and Citizens Advice.
The development is expected to complete in winter 2024 when Sharley Park Leisure Centre will be demolished.
