Active Leeds unveils new state of the art gym

Significant investment has been made into new equipment and a wider refurbishment at the centre, with the gym sporting brand new upgraded Technogym equipment, a new sled track and functional fitness area.

Along with new equipment, the refurbishments have created a brand-new experience for leisure centre users with money invested in new flooring and decoration, creating a much brighter and open space.

As well as the new gym, John Charles has a range of great facilities including a 50-meter swimming pool, indoor squash courts, group fitness classes, running track and a tennis centre to name just a few.
