Kingston Community Centre

Kingston Community Centre provides health and wellbeing facilities as part of a wider programme of transformation for Kingston town centre.

The new centre includes a 25m swimming pool suitable for competitions, a 20m teaching pool and toddler pool alongside a sports hall, gym, flexible studios and a clip and climb area. The building will also include flexible community spaces and two 5-a-side football pitches on the rooftop.

Kingston Community Centre sits alongside the Grade II listed Kingston Library and Museum at Fairfield Recreation Ground, linked by a new public foyer and a public café. This co-location provides the opportunity to signpost exhibitions and create a cultural destination within the town centre. The foyer and café will also provide facilities for park visitors and animate a new public square.
