Burntwood Leisure Centre

The facility has been shut as part of the latest national lockdown.

With the new Tier 3 restrictions replacing them from 2nd December, it had been feared that the doors would remain shut.

But operator Freedom Leisure Centre said some elements of the centre would reopen.

> “We would like to thank all our customers for their patience, support and loyalty once again during the second lockdown period of closure of Burntwood Leisure Centre.  
>  
> “We’re excited to be welcoming customers back, and we are delighted to announce that the centre will reopen on 2nd December.  
>  
> “The gym and pool will reopen, but tier 3 restrictions means that there will be no group exercise classes. Swimming lessons will start again.  
>  
> “We are working with national governing bodies to clarify exactly what we’ll be able to offer and will communicate this as soon as we’re able.”  
>  
> Freedom Leisure spokesperson

Freedom Leisure said it was confident that preparations meant it would be safe to continue to operate some acitivities.

> “We will operate our service under the guidelines provided by the Government and our centres will continue to provide a COVID-safe place to give customers the reassurance we know they need.  
>  
> “The teams can’t wait to get back to the business of providing our local communities with opportunities for exercise, activity and the chance to socialise safely with others.”  
>  
> Freedom Leisure spokesperson
