Posted on 13/11/26

We’re getting ready to welcome you back to Your Space Worksop on Monday 16 November. Find out what’s reopening, the latest main swimming pool update and everything you need to know before your first visit.

Important reopening update

Your Space Worksop reopens Monday 16 November

Following four weeks of major improvement works, we’re pleased to confirm that Your Space Worksop will reopen on Monday 16 November.

The gym, fitness studios, fitness classes and small swimming pool will all reopen as normal.

Main swimming pool – temporarily closed

Unfortunately, during the final preparations for reopening, an issue was identified with tiles lifting in the main swimming pool.

The main swimming pool will remain temporarily closed while the necessary repairs are carried out.

We’re working hard to resolve the issue as quickly as possible. We don’t yet have a confirmed reopening date for the main pool, but we’ll share updates as the work progresses.

We’re sorry for the additional disruption and appreciate your continued patience and understanding.

You don’t need to do anything. These arrangements will be applied automatically.

Please note: The swimming pool at Your Space Bircotes is scheduled to close temporarily from Monday 30 November for improvement works.

Information for Swim Academy members

As we prepare to reopen, there are different arrangements for lessons held in the small pool and those normally held in the main pool.

Small pool lessons – returning Monday

We’re pleased to confirm that all Swim Academy lessons held in the small pool will resume as normal from Monday 16 November.

If your child’s usual lesson takes place in the small pool, please attend at your normal day and time.

Main pool lessons – temporarily suspended

Due to the issue with tiles lifting in the main swimming pool, all Swim Academy lessons held in the main pool will remain temporarily suspended.

Lessons will resume once the necessary repairs have been completed and the pool can safely reopen.

We don’t yet have a confirmed date for main pool lessons to resume, but we’ll keep families updated as soon as more information becomes available.

Your swimming lesson payments

As previously communicated, your November Swim Academy payment was not collected because of the planned centre closure.

Any missed main pool lessons due to the extended closure will be refunded through deductions from your future payments until lessons resume as normal.

Please bear with us, as the amount and timing of these adjustments will depend on how long the pool remains closed and when lessons can resume.

Family swimming at other centres

While the main pool remains closed, Swim Academy families can continue to access family swimming at Your Space Retford and Your Space Bircotes, subject to normal timetables, membership conditions and admission rules.

Please remember that the swimming pool at Bircotes is scheduled to close temporarily from Monday 30 November.

About the improvement works

Your Space Worksop has been closed since Saturday 17 October while major energy-efficiency improvements have been carried out across the centre.

The works form part of a £3M+ Public Sector Decarbonisation Project , delivered in partnership with Bassetlaw District Council.

The project includes several major upgrades:

  • Air source heat pumps to provide efficient, lower-carbon heating and reduce reliance on gas.
  • Solar photovoltaic (PV) panels to generate clean, renewable electricity on site.
  • A full LED lighting upgrade to reduce energy use and improve lighting quality throughout the centre.
  • A new air handling unit with up to 70% improved heat recovery in the pool hall, helping reduce wasted energy and improve comfort for swimmers.
  • A new external lobby to improve insulation, reduce heat escape and support the centre’s overall energy management.

Collectively, these improvements are expected to save hundreds of thousands of kilowatt hours of energy each year and significantly reduce the centre’s carbon footprint.

Much of this investment is in the building’s infrastructure and energy systems, helping create a more sustainable facility for the future.

Thank you for staying connected

During the temporary closure, we’ve enjoyed staying connected with members through our community walks, breakfasts and Swim Academy activities.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped keep the Your Space Worksop community going while the centre was closed.

We’ll share further information about the main pool and the resumption of affected swimming lessons as soon as updates are available.
