Purpose: Armthorpe Leisure Centre, as part of the City of Doncaster Council's portfolio of leisure facilities, has been a valued community asset, offering residents access to fitness, sports, and recreational activities. The decision to invest capital in the centre in 2021 was driven by a commitment to enhancing the quality of local amenities, ensuring modern and accessible facilities for the community. The partial refurbishment of Armthorpe Leisure Centre addressed several improvements; however, certain critical elements—particularly the mechanical and electrical systems—require further investment to ensure the long-term viability of the facility. To support this objective, the commissioning of a comprehensive condition survey will help prioritise essential works, enabling City of Doncaster Council (CDC) staff to secure funding for necessary upgrades.
