Slough’s new flagship leisure facility, The Centre, opened last summer. The major construction project included a £1.5 million involvement for swimming pool specialists, Barr + Wray.
Barr + Wray supplied two x Myrtha pools which consisted of an eight-lane main pool of 25m x 17m, complete with access platform. They also delivered a 15m x 8.5m teaching pool complete with Variopool moveable floor with a working depth of 0 – 1.6m. The project is a completely multi functional facility which offers varied activities to all users. The design has been carefully considered to allow use for all abilities, this ranging from toddles through to pensioners and less abled individuals.
The Centre build was undertaken by Slough Urban Renewal (SUR), a partnership between Slough Borough Council (SBC) and Morgan Sindall Investments Ltd, which is driving regeneration across the town. Everyone Active, the council’s leisure partner, run The Centre along with all of the other leisure facilities in Slough. It is part of the ‘Get Active’ strategy, which the council aims to get more people, more active, more often.
