The gym at St Nicholas Park Leisure Centre in Warwick will receive a major refurbishment this summer.

Newbold Comyn Leisure Centre will also be given an upgrade, with 80 brand new, state-of-the-art pieces of strength and CV equipment installed across both sites.

New treadmills, cross trainers and olympic power racks will be unveiled, as well as equipment not previously available.

The centres, managed by Everyone Active in partnership with Warwick District Council, are set to invest £400,000, to "provide a better experience for members".

 St Nichols Park, which is due to be completed on Saturday 9 July, will also have new flooring and artwork. 

Gareth Wagg, contract manager at Everyone Active, said: "Newbold Comyn Leisure Centre and St Nicholas Park Leisure Centre remain an integral part of the community and we're excited to build on this by improving our current gym offering. 

 "We're sure that our members will benefit greatly from this investment. Not only will it help to increase our prevalence as a hub for the local community, but also work to support our mission - for everybody to reach their target of 30 minutes' exercise, five times a week."

£400,000 will be spent on refurbishments across the two sites

During the refurbishment, the gyms will be closed.

Members will be advised on the dates for each centre and given access to nearby Everyone Active leisure centres.

Cllr Moira-Ann Grainger, WDC's portfolio holder for neighbourhood and leisure added: "We are very pleased to see the continued investment in our leisure centres by Everyone Active.

"This ensures that local residents have access to the latest equipment to improve their health, strength and wellbeing at an affordable price right on their doorstep."

 Both Centres will be adding a range of additional Group Fitness classes to the timetable during its refurbishment closure.
