News & Events

Give your loved ones a healthy heart this Valentine's Day. London Borough of Croydon leisure centres are opening their doors on 13th and 14th February and planning lots of free activities.

Purley Leisure Centre is getting in the mood with free sweeties to giveway and a tempting Kiss and Swim offer. “Just come in with someone you love, give them a quick kiss - and you can swim for free,” says Danny Plumber, duty manager. “Everyone’s welcome - partners, families and sweethearts.”  

The gym is open to anyone over 16 and for the more competitive Valentine types Danny has devised the Love Boat Challenge with prizes awarded for the best time rowing 1,000 meters on the rowing machine.

The pool at New Addington Leisure Centre will be splashing out with free sessions for youngsters at lunchtime on the Saturday and Sunday with water fun and inflatables.

South Norwood Leisure Centre is inviting members to bring their partner for free and try out an Ab Attack or Total Body Tone.

With activities for the kids, gym tasters and challenges for a range of abilities from starters to regular visitors.    
 
“It’s a great way to spend time together with the family and the ones you love - and do something that will get your heart beating faster,” say Danny who be monitoring the kisses at Purely Leisure Centre.  “Or if you’re on your own on why not try one of our classes and take care of your own heart?”

So forget the roses, think outside the chocolate box and do something that will really show you care - look after your loved one’s heart. 
 
Places are limited so drop in or call to book spaces.
