Your Space Worksop Temporary Closure

Posted on 30/09/26

Everything you need to know about the temporary closure, your membership and how you can stay active while these important improvements take place.

Working in partnership with Bassetlaw District Council £3M+ Public Sector Decarbonisation Project

Your Space Worksop will be temporarily closed from Saturday 17 October, with a planned reopening on Monday 16 November.

The entire centre will be closed during this period, including the gym, swimming pool, fitness classes, Swim Academy lessons and all other activities.

We appreciate that this will cause some disruption, but the closure is needed so several major improvements can be completed as part of a £3M+ Public Sector Decarbonisation Project, delivered in partnership with Bassetlaw District Council.

These works will significantly improve the building’s energy efficiency, reduce carbon emissions and help create a more sustainable facility for the future.

Planned reopening Monday 16 November

What improvements are being made?

During the closure, several major upgrades will be installed across the centre, including:

  • 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.

Information for fitness members

Your membership will remain active throughout the temporary closure.

To recognise the disruption, monthly members will not have a December membership payment collected.

Members who have paid for an annual membership will have one additional month added to the end of their membership at no extra cost.

You do not need to do anything. These arrangements will be applied automatically.

Stay active at another Your Space site

While Your Space Worksop is temporarily closed, your membership will continue to give you access to all Your Space locations.

This also applies to members who normally have a single-site Worksop membership. No changes to your membership are required — simply scan in as normal when you visit.

You are welcome to use the facilities, gym spaces and fitness classes available at other Your Space centres, subject to normal timetables, booking requirements and site admission rules.

Please check the relevant centre information and timetable before travelling.
