Dulwich Redevelopment

Dulwich Leisure Centre has served the local community since 1891. In the second phase of Southwark Council's refurbishment programme £6.1 million has been allocated to Dulwich Leisure Centre to upgrade the building and facilities completely whilst preserving and enhancing the historical features.

Southwark Council is pleased to announce that refurbishment works commenced on 5 May 2009. In phase 1 (May 2009 to summer 2010) the swimming pool has been taken out of service. The gym will remain in use throughout the whole of the refurbishment programme, with reduced facilities in the transition entering phase 2 (late summer 2010 to January 2011) when the pool re-opens.
