Everyone Active lands 20-year leisure contract

By Deven Pamben    02 Mar 2017
Cllr Richard Millard is excited about the "new journey with Everyone Active"

Everyone Active has signed a 20-year deal to provide sports and leisure facilities in the East Hampshire area, which will involve almost £30m (US$36.9m, €35m) of investment in two new leisure centres and extensive redevelopment of another.

New facilities will be built in Alton and in Whitehill and Bordon, with money invested in Taro Leisure Centre in Petersfield.

East Hampshire District Council and Everyone Active will invest £29.5m (US$36.2m, €34.4m) in the three projects.

The contract, which will see Everyone Active run all three centres on a day-to-day basis, will begin once the council’s current deal, with Places for People Leisure, expires on 31 March.

Work at the Taro centre will begin this year while the two new facilities will be built simultaneously in 2019.

The site at Alton will include a six-lane 25metre pool, a six-court sports hall, two fitness studios, squash courts and a gym.

The Whitehill and Bordon centre will feature a six-lane 25m pool, two fitness studios, a learner pool and a gym.

Work at Taro Leisure Centre will include improvements to the reception area, redevelopment of the fitness studio and refurbishment of the changing rooms.

Councillor Richard Millard, the council's deputy leader, said: “We can look forward to two brand new top quality leisure centres and improved facilities across the district, all to be delivered within the next two years.

“And the commercial elements written into the contract will ensure that these facilities will not only offer fantastic sporting opportunities but, over the lifetime of the contract, will generate profits that the council will invest in improved services provision at no cost to the council taxpayer.”

David Love, Everyone Active's contract manager, said: “This is a very exciting time for East Hampshire, with a wide range of new and improved leisure facilities coming to the area.

“We look forward to becoming a part of the local community and encouraging more people to improve their health and wellbeing through activity.”
