New £9m Nottingham leisure centre opens
Nottingham City Council (NCC) has announced the opening of the city's new £9m Victoria Leisure Centre in Sneinton, which forms part of a wider investment in local facilities.
The council joined forces with inspiredspaces - a company established by Carillion - to lead the project through a public-private joint venture, the Local Education Partnership.
A 70-station gym fitted with Technogym and Power Plate equipment and a fitness studio are among the facilities at the centre, which was designed by London-based architects Levitate.
Other facilities include a 25m, six-lane swimming pool with separate teaching pool and a fun splash play area for children, as well as a health suite with sauna and steamrooms.
NCC portfolio holder for leisure, culture and tourism David Trimble said: "The new Victoria Leisure Centre will provide state-of-the-art health and fitness facilities for all sections of the local community."
