Swimmers at Putney Leisure Centre will soon enjoy a better pool experience, as Wandsworth Council invests in upgrading the air handling system in the pool hall. The work will significantly improve air quality and temperature control, and reduce the centre’s carbon footprint.
To complete the improvements, the main pool and health suite will be temporarily closed from Monday 3 March to Tuesday 1 April. However, all other leisure centre facilities, including the gym and fitness classes, will remain open as usual.
Judi Gasser, Cabinet Member for Environment, said: "We are investing in Putney Leisure Centre to ensure that people in Wandsworth can continue to enjoy the best possible facilities. These essential upgrades will make a real difference to everyone who swims here and are just one of the ways we’re encouraging everyone to come out and get moving. We’re committed to keeping our leisure centres in great shape for our community, as part of our Wandsworth Moves Together plan.”
This project is part of a £355,000 investment in Putney Leisure Centre which will also replace lighting in the centre with LED lights. The full project will help to improve the centre’s carbon efficiency, and reduce our overall carbon footprint. Funding for this improvement work has been provided jointly by Wandsworth Council and Sports England and is part of Wandsworth's goal to become a Carbon Neutral Council by 2030.
