🥳 As we come closer to 2021, we are excited to announce that Mercer Hall Leisure Centre will reopen on January 4th 2021! This year has been very challenging, and we thank all our loyal members for their support and patience as we worked to ensure that Mercer Hall can reopen as a COVID safe building. 🥳

Direct Debit payments for memberships will start again from January 1st. However, due to Hyndburn being in Tier 3 we are unable to run indoor fitness classes. As a result, we are reducing the payment for Premier & Feelgood Premier from £32.50, to the same price as our Lifestyle Membership - £27.50. These changes will remain until we are able to run indoor classes again.

If you have any questions regarding your membership, please contact [email protected] with your query in the Subject Line. Contacting this email does not mean you wish to cancel your membership, it is just your point of contact in regards to restarting the Mercer Hall memberships.

🏊 We will have a more detailed update on the progress of Mercer Hall’s pool within the coming weeks. But we would like to remind and encourage members that the pool at Hyndburn Leisure Centre is available for you to use and is COVID safe. 🏊

To help with keeping Mercer Hall Leisure Centre COVID secure, all activities must be booked in advance. You can book your activity sessions by calling Hyndburn Leisure Centre on 01254 385945 between 27th – 31st Dec (8am – 1pm). Please note that you will need to confirm that you are booking for a session at Mercer Hall. Additionally, Mercer Hall will be open Monday 4th Jan, from 7am, for you to make your pre-bookings.

✅ Moving forward, we want to simplify points of contact for all our customers. We have decided to merge Mercer Hall’s page with Hyndburn Leisure’s, to ensure everyone has access to all our content. ✅

You can follow Hyndburn Leisure by clicking here. There will be no access to Mercer Hall’s individual page in January 2021, so please like and share with the community.

We will also be running live classes through the app – which you can join and interact with each other and the coach.

In light of the recent article, many of our customers have read over the weekend, we are bringing forward our Mercer Hall update to clear up any confusion. The work outlined is for the future of the Leisure Trust and how we can best grow our facilities to support the needs of the community sustainably going forward.

Over the past year, we have come together as a society to help support one another through unprecedented times and through lockdown, there’s now a greater acknowledgement and focus on the importance of being physically active to protect our health and wellbeing.

We look forward to reopening our facilities early in the new year and reintroducing classes and activities to support more people across Hyndburn to live active healthy lifestyles; and we’re excited to announce that these include Hyndburn Academy (Norden Gym), Mercer Hall Leisure Centre and Bank Mill House Community Centre.

Ahead of reopening, our staff will be working hard to ensure that the facilities will be COVID safe by spacing out equipment, installing hand sanitiser stations and implementing a one-way system throughout the building in addition to a booking system for all activities.

Unfortunately, the thermal suite is unable to open as guided by national restrictions. The pool is still undergoing investigatory work, thus proving to be a lengthier process due to the local restrictions and as of late – the countrywide lockdown. We aim to get the pool back open as quickly and safely as possible and want to encourage positivity and excitement for the certain reopening.

Feelgood members can email [email protected], if you’re interested in renewing or joining the Feelgood Membership you can email now to register for a free taster session.

For questions regarding your memberships, please email [email protected]

More information to follow on unfreezing of memberships, opening times and the session booking process. We are aiming to open early in January, ready for you to start your new year's resolutions!

In the meantime, why not download our newly launched, MyWellness App. There are over 100 on-demand classes including a selection of classes from your favourite instructors, activity & progress tracker, fitness challenges against other App Users and much more.

You can create your account at mywellness.com/hyndburn - then download for free from the App Store or Google Play. Standard use of the app is free, with the option to join our Diamond Membership for a small monthly fee.

Due to the government’s recent announcement, it is with a heavy heart, that effective from Thursday 5th November we are temporarily closing Hyndburn Leisure Centre and Wilson’s Athletics Pavillion and extending closure for our other facilities; Mercer Hall Leisure Centre, Accrington Town Hall, Hyndburn Academy (Norden Gym Membership), Clayton Civic Hall, West End Community Centre and Bank Mill House.

Fitness Memberships will be frozen automatically and will not be reinstated until our doors reopen. Our 1st November Direct Debit payment file has already been processed at the bank. We aim to refund this payment within 7 days. Please do not cancel your direct debit at the bank, as this will complicate the process of getting you a refund within this timescale.

All existing bookings will be given priority to re-book for a later date when we reopen.

Swimming and Gymnastics class payments will also be frozen automatically. Customers who have paid in full for their block booking and direct debits will be guaranteed their place when we resume classes.

We are pleased to confirm that our Up & Active programmes have already been redesigned and will be delivered via social media channels and digital platforms to continue to encourage healthy behaviours and reduce social isolation.

In addition, to help to keep our members motivated and healthy at home we are excited to announce the launch of our Technogym My Wellness App.

The App will provide access to classes from your favourite instructors and an additional 100 on-demand classes. It also includes challenges and allows you to track your outdoor activities. More information on the App launch will follow soon, so please keep an eye out on our social pages.

We would like to reassure all our customers that we will do everything necessary to work through this and we really look forward to reopening our facilities and services, as soon as government advice and public health allows.

We can’t thank you enough for supporting our charitable trust. As a Hyndburn-based charity, we are committed to keeping our community strong and connected during this difficult time.

Important Update:

As a society, we have emerged from lockdown with a greater acknowledgement and focus on the importance of being physically active to protect our health and wellbeing.

Over the past three months we have welcomed hundreds of people back to Hyndburn Leisure Centre. We introduced a wide range of procedures to ensure that the facility is COVID secure, including increased cleaning regimes, one-way systems, safe distancing measures and reduced occupancy levels in spaces and activity sessions.

We have received excellent feedback from customers. Here are just a few quotes from members about their experience of exercising at Hyndburn Leisure Centre:

🏊‍♀‍ "I loved my weekly swim and decided to try out the lane swim sessions at Hyndburn. Very impressed, and more than happy with the different lanes!"🏊‍♀‍

👍 "The Feelgood Suite feels safe, secure and I'm so happy to be back on the toning beds!" 👍

🏋️"It has been great to be back. Gym 2 is easy to socially distance in, hand sanitiser everywhere, antibacterial spray so we can all wipe down the machines and weights after use.” 🏋️

We look forward to reopening more facilities and reintroducing activities to support more people across Hyndburn to live active, healthy lifestyles.

Unfortunately, local infection rates have led to further restrictions being introduced which affect our ability to deliver our initial phased reopening plan. The recent announcement to move Lancashire to Tier 3 has specifically impacted on the reintroduction of Soft Play, Racket and team sports.

As a result, the planned reopening of Mercer Hall Leisure Centre will be delayed until further notice. We had initially planned to open from late October, but this is no longer feasible. It is our intention to reopen each facility at the earliest opportunity and the health and safety of our members and employees must take priority above all else.

Ahead of reopening, all Mercer Hall memberships will remain frozen. During this period, we also encourage and welcome Mercer Hall members to visit Hyndburn Leisure Centre for a show round at the facility.

Please can all customers that have paid for children’s swimming lessons block booking at Mercer Hall, email us directly at [email protected]

Feelgood members can email [email protected] for a free taster session, or call 01254 385945 ext.214

For Gym, Swimming and Classes please email [email protected] or call our fitness and wellbeing team on 01254 385945 ext 210

We apologise for any inconvenience that the closure of Mercer Hall has caused, and we hope to reopen as soon as public health and government advice allows us to do so.

If you have questions regarding your membership, please contact [email protected]

Amazing news!!

We are pleased to announce that we are preparing to open Mercer Hall Leisure Centre and welcome back our members very soon!

More information to follow, so please keep an eye on future posts and allow to receive notifications so that you can stay up to date!

As we go into our third month after reopening, we have decided to automatically unfreeze all memberships for Hyndburn Leisure Centre. These changes will commence from the 15th September payment date, and the 1st October.

As Mercer Hall Leisure Centre is remaining closed due to essential works, members of Mercer Hall will remain frozen unless they chose to unfreeze so they can access our facilities at Hyndburn Leisure Centre. Mercer Hall members can follow updates regarding Mercer Hall's reopening via our website www.hyndburnleisure.co.uk or through our social media pages.

Hyndburn Academy (Norden Sports Centre) will also remain closed at this time and memberships will remain frozen.

We are grateful for your patience and understanding with the new changes. It's been amazing to help get our community back into fitness, and we will continue to provide the support and a safe environment for fitness and wellbeing. Here's just a few comments and feedback we've received over the past few months.

If you have any further questions about your membership or would like to join, please email [email protected] or call us directly on 01254 385945 ext.210

We can't wait to welcome you back!🏋️‍♀️💛

Work is currently taking place to understand the best model for reopening Mercer Hall Leisure Centre.
Due to the layout of the facility and limited space on-site, social distancing is more challenging than at our other facilities.

Unfortunately, during lockdown, essential maintenance requirements have also been identified, which we are addressing. We hope the facility will reopen from October but have yet to finalise what activities will be available and opening times.

In the meantime we are doing everything we can to ensure you are safe and comfortable for when you do return and that our centre is safe and ready for when you’re back.⚠️

Mercer Hall members can use the facilities at Hyndburn Leisure Centre. If you would like to unfreeze your membership and join in activities at Hyndburn Leisure Centre, please email [email protected]

Stay safe, look after yourself and keep checking our page for further updates and ways you can keep active before our doors open 🚪💡
