Everyone Active to kick off Westminster leisure contract next month
Everyone Active will begin managing Westminster City Council’s prestigious leisure portfolio next month, following a major new contract win for the operator.
Rio 2016 Team GB gymnast Max Whitlock was on-hand to mark the partnership with an acrobatic display in front of London's Marble Arch this week, flanked by senior figures from the Council and Everyone Active MD David Bibby.
The leisure operator was awarded the 10-year contract earlier this year, after a hard-fought tender in competition with previous incumbent GLL. It marks Everyone Active’s latest triumph in central London, having recently landed a seven-year contract for eight sites in Southwark.
Starting 1 July, the new partnership with Westminster Council sees Everyone Active manage eight local leisure centres including Jubilee, Little Venice, Marshall Street, Paddington Recreation Ground, Porchester Centre, Queen Mother and Seymour Sports Centres. The operator will also take over the management of Moberly Sports Centre when it reopens in spring 2018 following a £26m redevelopment.
As part of the new contract, Everyone Active will invest £9m into improving facilities across the portfolio, as well as introducing hot yoga classes at Queen Mother, Seymour, Porchester and Marshall Street Leisure Centres. The operator will also offer 130 hours of free sport and physical activity programmes every week in community locations outside of sports centres, and will launch a range of new sporting programmes.
"Having access to top class facilities, programming and coaching is vital not only to the increasing sports participation from grassroots level but to improving the health of the nation,” said Whitlock.
“As someone who uses an Everyone Active-managed centre, I know the investment in Westminster leisure centres will play a big part in making activity even more accessible to all, helping the community get active and find a sport they love."
