Castlegate Fitness Timetable

Leisure Centre Fitness Timetable

Technogym, one of the world’s leading providers of fitness equipment and digital wellness solutions, have been working with Monmouthshire Council to develop proposals for a brand-new refurbished fitness suite at Caldicot Leisure Centre. The project is at a vital stage where, we are gathering feedback from members, prospective users and the wider community to help inform the final design. This engagement is helping to ensure the new facility reflects local needs while creating a welcoming and inclusive space that supports people of all ages, abilities and fitness goals.

Supported by a £601,429 investment, the proposed fitness suite will feature modern, high-quality equipment and innovative digital solutions designed to enhance the member experience and support a wide range of health and wellbeing activities. The design aims to create an inspiring environment that is accessible to everyone, whether they are experienced gym users, regular class participants, swimming pool users or considering joining for the first time.

By placing customers at the heart of the decision-making process, the project will deliver far more than a refurbished gym. It will create a modern community fitness space that encourages participation, promotes healthier lifestyles and supports people in achieving their individual wellbeing goals. The feedback received will play an important role in shaping a facility that the local community can be proud of and enjoy for years to come.

FAQ’s

We are progressing plans for the investment and refurbishment of the fitness suite at Caldicot Leisure Centre. Below are some frequently asked questions to help keep customers and members informed as the project develops.

What is included in the Caldicot Leisure Centre refurbishment?

This exciting investment will enhance the first-floor fitness facilities at Caldicot Leisure Centre, creating a more modern, welcoming and high-quality environment for members and visitors.

The refurbishment will modernise the first-floor fitness areas, including the main gym, smaller fitness area, BioCircuit / Easyline provision, studios, multipurpose spaces, circulation areas and upstairs toilets.

Works will include new fitness equipment, updated LED lighting, flooring, power, data, decoration and associated building services, with air conditioning requirements reviewed as part of the scheme.

These works are refurbishments within the existing facility footprint, with the layout of the communal space remaining the same and no structural changes to the building.

How long will the leisure centre be closed?

The leisure centre is expected to be closed for between 12 and 15 weeks while the refurbishment works are completed.

What will happen with my membership during the closure?

There will be no changes to your membership during the closure. The local authority is exploring an alternative location to provide fitness facilities during the works. We expect minimal disruption to classes, and the spin studio will remain open at Caldicot Leisure Centre.

Where is the temporary gym located?

The temporary gym and fitness class facility will be located at Castlegate Business Park, approximately a three minute drive from Caldicot Leisure Centre.

Address: Castlegate Business Park, Caldicot, NP26 5YR

Will fitness classes continue?

Yes. We will continue to offer a fitness class programme from the temporary location. Whilst we have worked hard to retain as much of the current timetable as possible, some class capacities may be reduced due to the available space.

What facilities are available at Castlegate Business Park?

The temporary facility will include:

Gym facilities
Fitness classes
Changing areas
Air conditioning
On-site parking

Please note that showers will not be available at the temporary location.

What gym equipment will be available in the Temporary Fitness Suite?

The Temporary Fitness Suite will include a range of cardiovascular and resistance equipment to help members maintain their fitness routines while the redevelopment works are taking place. Every effort has been made to provide a balanced mix of equipment within the available space. Please click HERE for a full list of equipment.

As this is a temporary facility, there are some limitations on the equipment that can be installed. Certain pieces of equipment, including the Dual Assisted Pulley and Cable Jungle, require permanent floor fixings to comply with Technogym's health and safety requirements. As the Temporary Fitness Suite is located within a shared building, we are unable to bolt equipment into the floor and therefore these items cannot be relocated to the temporary gym.
