More Leisure Facilities To Reopen in Acton


Reynolds Sports Centre and Twyford Sports Centre return in October


More swimming memberships available at Everyone Active in Acton

A further set of leisure centres will reopen in Acton from 5 October, it has been announced.

Reynolds Sports Centre and Twyford Sports Centre are on the list of sites to reopen their doors after the first “successful” round of centres reopened in July.

Other centres reopening at the same time in the borough are Elthorne Sports Centre, Greenford Sports Centre, Perivale Park Athletics Track

The centres already open, Everyone Active Acton Centre, Dormers Wells and Northolt Leisure centres and Southall Sports Centre, will also begin bringing back further activities and programmes.

This includes taking new enrolments for swimming lessons at the Everyone Active centres.

Visitors are being urged to familiarise themselves with the new coronavirus measures and rules that will be in place at the centres before they go, and to book their place ahead of their visit.

Bassam Mafouz, the councillor with responsibility for leisure services said, “Swimming lessons are now resuming in some leisure centres and more facilities are due to open next month, so I encourage local people to continue to be safe and responsible when planning a visit. We all need to adjust to the new normal and the ongoing measures in place to stop the spread of COVID-19.

“Ealing’s facilities will comply with government and public health guidelines to ensure the safety of customers and staff. But everyone can play their part by washing their hands, sticking to social distancing and following the new rules.”
