Essential works are underway to address issues relating to the hydraulic system of the pool’s moving floor and the replacement of pool tiles as previously announced.

Health Suite facilities at Newry Leisure Centre will now be closed from Saturday May 4 to accommodate contractors on site. This follows on from the recent closure of the swimming pool to facilitate the repairs.

All other facilities within Newry Leisure Centre remain open.

The Council appreciates the patience of members as these works take place and will continue to keep members updated.

Below is a reminder of important information for swimming pool and health suite users.
