Public gyms and pools were able to open from Saturday 25th July so it is very disappointing that whilst most of the Croydon Council owned leisure centres have opened, Purley Leisure Centre has not re-opened. I can find no explanation on the Council website or on the operator’s website. There are no phone lines available and my online enquiry has gone unanswered.
Keeping fit, particularly keeping our BMI down, is one way to reduce the affect of COVID-19 should we be unfortunate enough to catch it – so it is especially disappointing that the Labour Council isn’t opening our closest leisure centre, or even letting us know when we might get the same level of service as those living in Labour wards – all of the reopened leisure centres are in Labour wards..
I will continue to seek answers as to why our local leisure centre does not even have a reopening date.
