In the coming months, the centre will continue its modernisation with improved swimming facilities slated for summer 2025.
The entire scheme is funded by a robust investment budget of £7.5 million.

“This is a much-needed facility that plays a key role in the everyday lives of so many people.
“Whether you’re new to fitness or a long-time gym goer, there’s something here for everyone.
“We’re especially pleased to bring back the soft play area, giving families a fun and safe space to enjoy.”

Cllr Sabri Ozaydin, Enfield council’s cabinet member for placemaking and climate action, said: “We know how much the community has missed Edmonton Leisure Centre and how vital it is to the health, wellbeing and social life of local people.
“That’s why we’ve worked closely with our colleagues at GLL to get the centre back open as soon as possible.
“It’s been wonderful to welcome residents back to use our upgraded gym facilities which provide accessible and inclusive options for people of all ages and abilities, helping to create a healthier and more active Edmonton.”
