The Blantyre Leisure Centre’s swimming pool and health suite remain closed due to air handling unit issues, creating disappointment among residents. While repairs are in progress, no reopening date has been set, disrupting vital activities for families and the community during the school holidays. Local feedback on the situation is encouraged.
South Lanarkshire Leisure and Culture announced the completion of refurbishment at Blantyre Leisure Centre, with the gym and swimming pool reopening on January 12. Upgrades include new gym equipment and enhanced changing facilities. Swimming lessons and Aquafit resume the same day, while fitness classes are temporarily held at Jock Stein Centre.
Blantyre Swimming Pool has reopened on a reduced timetable, while the gym remains closed for upgrades. The leisure centre will resume some services from September 29, 2025, but will close the pool again on November 3 for further improvements. Updates will be provided regarding the ongoing transformation project.
