Horizon Leisure invests £500,000 in Waterlooville gym

Horizon Leisure is investing £500,000 in a major refurbishment of the gym at Waterlooville Leisure Centre. Funded entirely by the charitable leisure trust, the project will deliver new cardio, strength and functional training equipment across the facility’s three floors.

“We are so excited about this investment in Waterlooville Leisure Centre,” says Mike Lyons, CEO, Horizon Leisure. “The upgrade is really comprehensive, and beyond the fantastic new equipment we will also be installing new atmospheric lighting, fresh décor and modern flooring, which will deliver a renewed feel and positive outlook that is both on trend and aligned with what our customers tell us they would like.

“As a charitable organisation, our aim is to support local residents to find opportunities for better wellbeing and to help achieve this we need inspiring and welcoming facilities. The latest investment at Waterlooville Leisure Centre means we have highquality equipment that’s easy to use, whilst creating a safe space where our customers can enjoy spending time, now and into the future.”

The mid floor will receive a complete cardio equipment upgrade, while the ground floor will feature new strength machines and a refreshed free weightsarea. A dedicated glute training zone will also be introduced, alongside plate-loaded equipment. Equipment supplied by Horizon Leisure’s wellness partner, Pulse Fitness, will include low-impact elevation treadmills, curved slat treadmills, stepmills, air bikes and pin-selected strength machines.
