Lampton Leisure facilities to get green upgrades

As part of an on-going commitment to a healthier, more sustainable environment, Lampton Leisure, in partnership with Hounslow Council, is set to undergo green transformations at three more of their leisure centres, that will see the future proofing of its services and will support the Council’s mission to deliver greater energy efficiency across the borough.

Thanks to the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme (PSDS), run by the Department for Business and Industrial Strategy, all the Borough’s leisure centres will be undergoing phased work commencing on 3rd March 2022.

The building works will include: the installation of Photo voltaic panels that turn daylight into energy, traditional light bulbs replaced with LED lighting and traditional gas-fired boilers will be replaced with modern Air Source Heat Pumps – supplying super-efficient, low-cost energy-saving heating and hot water.

The Lampton Leisure team recognise the importance of our leisure facilities to the local community and will be conducting as much of this upgrade work behind the scenes as possible. Installation of PV panels will take place while centres are open, however the switch to LED lighting and the installation of Air Source Heat Pumps will require centre closures, to complete the works.

Works have been scheduled to be staggered between leisure centres to minimise impact on the borough and current proposed closure dates are as follows:

• Isleworth Leisure Centre: 03.03.2022 – 13.03.2022

• New Chiswick Pool: 14.03.2022 – 20.03.2022

• Brentford Fountain Leisure Centre: 21.03.2022 – 27.03.2022

Osterley Athletics Track will not require closure during the project works.

All centre members will be contacted directly about planned closures and to advise that their memberships will be valid across all other Lampton Leisure sites, so they can continue to keep activie while their centre is closed.

All of these planned upgrades will help reduce carbon emissions as part of the Government pledge to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and reach the target of net zero emissions by 2050.

Rowland Omamor, Managing Director of Lampton Leisure, said: “We are delighted to be able to upgrade four more of our centres so they can utilise more sustainable green energy in years to come. This grant scheme will provide really valuable upgrades to our facilities and although we know that the closures will cause some disruption to centre users, we hope local residents will understand the value of these works.”

Cllr Samia Chaudhary, Cabinet Member for Leisure Services, added: “We all have a duty to do what is best for our environment as we head towards a future that is potentially threatened if we don’t act now on climate emergency.

“Staggering the temporary closure of our leisure centres to do these vital works will pay huge dividends in saving on our carbon footprint and ensure our leisure centres are fit for the future. It’s an opportunity the council has seized to ‘future-proof’ all leisure facilities in Hounslow with funding through the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme (PSDS), which is run by the Department for Business and Industrial Strategy”

National Fitness Day 2021

National Fitness Day, set to be the most active day of the year, takes place on Wednesday 22nd September and to help encourage the community to get active Lampton Leisure will be hosting a cycle challenge for members and non-members throughout the day.

The challenge will take place at Brentford Fountain Leisure Centre, Hanworth Air Park Leisure Centre and Library, Isleworth Leisure Centre and Library, Heston Pools & Fitness, New Chiswick Pool and Osterley Sports and Athletic Centre.

Each centre will race to complete the most cycling miles in a day and local residents are encouraged to come down, jump on a bike and help their local leisure centre win the challenge!

Non-members can register here for a free gym pass to get involved and get a feel for their local centre.

National Fitness Day will see people of all ages, backgrounds and abilities come together to celebrate the fun and benefits of physical activity in day to day life. 2021 is the 10th anniversary of the campaign, which has already helped millions of people of all ages, abilities and backgrounds to find or rediscover a fitness activity they love.

The theme for this year’s campaign is ‘Fitness Unites Us’, as communities across the UK unite to recognise our common interest in fitness and the social and mental power of being active and the positive change it can make to people’s lives.

People can also get involved by posting photos or messages on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter in the build-up and during the week, by using the hashtag #Fitness2Me to share what fitness means to them – whether it be beating stress, improving wellbeing, making friends or achieving a target.

Alongside the cycling challenge, Lampton Leisure will also be running free sessions on their brand new BodiTrax machines throughout the day. The machines are designed to help track users’ fitness journeys by monitoring metrics including weight, segmental muscle and fat, total intra and extracellular fluids, skeletal and abdominal cavity analysis, metabolic efficiency, metabolic age and cellular performance. The machines will help new visitors to the centre set targets and plan their fitness targets and goals.

Rowland Omamor, Managing Director of Lampton Leisure said: “National Fitness Day is a great opportunity to get the community active, encourage our existing centre users to come together in a challenge and introduce new visitors to the facilities we have on offer. We’re really excited about our new Boditrax machines and hope that giving people free access to them for the day will encourage even more local residents to get active and stay healthy.”

To take part in the challenge simply visit your local Lampton Leisure centre on National Fitness Day on 22nd September and join in the fun!

Drowning Prevention Week 2021

With summer fast approaching we’re sure everyone is keen to get out and enjoy the UK’s beautiful water sites after months of restrictions. But throughout 2020 and 2021, young people have missed out on the vital opportunity to swim, leaving a dramatic gap in school swimming and water safety education.

Drowning Prevention Week, this year running 19-26 June 2021, is a national awareness raising campaign that encourages parents, schools, leisure centres, community groups and businesses, to use the Charity’s free online resources to teach children and young people the skills they need, to enjoy a lifetime of fun in the water.

At Lampton Leisure, we are supporting this great campaign and will be hosting a range of activities at the end of Swim School lessons from 19-26 June. These will take place in the last 10 minutes of each lesson where there will be a variety of activities for each stage that aims to help with skills and knowledge to make the right decisions about water safety.

We ask that the children in stages 6-10 bring an old t-shirt and shorts to their lesson for the activity which you don’t mind getting wet. This will be a demonstration of a real-life scenario where you may get caught out with more on that just your swimmers!

This week will also be a great opportunity for our teachers to run assessments and progress pupils through to the next stage so stay tuned on the home portal for the fantastic progress your child is making at Swim School!
