Revamp begins for Waterfield pools
The Everyone Active facility in Melton will undergo a refurbishment to revamp the ageing entrance area, pools and changing rooms.
It is expected that work will be completed by October.
During this time the gym will remain open, save for a brief period when builders will ‘knock through’ from the new extension, and a temporary reception area, mobile male and female changing facilities and information suite will be opened.

The new gym will include a large weights and cardio area and youth zone, for eight to 16 year olds, with dance mats, interactive bikes and active sports wall.
A group exercise studio and spin studio will also be built, which will be suitable for dance, fitness and gymnastics classes.
Although the flume pool will close to make way for the expansion, the teaching pool will be improved to accommodate babies and small children, new steps are being installed and new play equipment purchased.
