Lockdown Update

Leave a Comment

The Leisure Centre is now closed until we are told otherwise. We expect a review before 2nd December to let us know if we will be able to reopen then.

We remain committed to our community’s health and wellbeing and will be open again as soon as we are able.

Keeping fit and healthy is vitally important throughout lockdown for both physical and mental health. Many of our coaches are using online platforms such as Zoom/Microsoft Teams/Google Hangout in order to bring their classes in to your home. Why not maintain your fitness whilst also supporting your coaches through this hard time? See other posts with full details of the online classes that are available.

If you have bookings with us in the forthcoming weeks, we can carry them forward as credit for future sessions. If you would prefer a refund, please contact us and we can arrange this ([email protected])

Please stay safe and look after each other. We’ll be here when this is all over.

Ecclesiastical is launching a wonderful 12 day event and will donate £1000 to 10 charities every day from 7th to the 22nd December and the Leisure Centre could be one of those charities. We need to get as many nominations as we can in order to have a chance of receiving a donation so please help to make it happen. It couldn’t be easier!

All you have to do is click on the ‘Nominate us’ button and then scroll down the page it takes you to and you will be able to nominate us. It will take around 2 minutes to do!

Please give us a SHARE and pass this information on to everyone who would like to support the Leisure Centre.

It will take just a few moments of your time and if you have been impressed with the changes you have seen at the leisure centre so far, we can achieve even more great things with this extra financial boost!

Thanks for your support!

Don’t Forget to Support Your High Street!

Many of our high street shops have gone above and beyond to look after their customers during the pandemic.

We are incredibly lucky in Penistone to be able to buy a wide variety of great products on our high street. This year has been really tough on the small businesses and now they need US to rally round and support them the way they have looked after us!

Mark and his team at Penistone Fruit and Veg has provided a brilliant service throughout the first lockdown. They have gone the extra mile to deliver to customers over the whole area, and keep us all fed with top quality produce.

It’s likely that Penistone Fruit and Veg will start to offer a contactless pick up from Penistone Leisure Centre from next week. You’ll be able to drive around our one way system and Mark/his team will pop your order in the boot for you! Perfectly convenient, safe, and supporting your local businesses!
