Where we operate

We are helping communities thrive across Dorset, Hampshire and London. Our Head Office is based in Bournemouth, a recognised innovation hub and popular business and consumer tourism destination. The quality leisure centres, attractions and event spaces we operate are giving local people and visitors year-round activities and cultural experiences. Our reach is felt nationally, supporting tourism and the economy. 

Bournemouth 

In addition to our Head Office, we also operate leisure centres, sports facilities, family attractions and high-profile event venues across the BCP (Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole) conurbation and into East Dorset in collaboration with BCP Council and Bournemouth School Charitable Trust.   

Bournemouth International Centre and Bournemouth Pavilion are iconic cultural landmarks offering a year-round event programme.  

Six leisure centres, including the flagship BH Live Active, Littledown, are pivotal in providing activities that support sporting excellence, encourage grassroots participation, and inspire community health and wellbeing through regular physical activity. 

Portsmouth 

We currently operate six leisure centres and attractions across this historic waterfront city in partnership with Portsmouth City Council. Sharing the ambition to encourage ‘a more active city’ we provide hundreds of activities for all ages and abilities to inspire greater participation in physical activity.  

Centres include Pyramids in Southsea, Exploria, a supersized indoor soft play and bounce centre, and Mountbatten, the city’s flagship leisure and sports centre. A dedicated Tennis and Gymnastics Centre encourage grassroots participation and club-level athletes. A 50m swimming pool, athletics track, and velodrome provide a platform for sports clubs to train and compete. 

Croydon 

Fairfield Halls sits in the heart of Croydon, one of Greater London’s largest commercial districts and the Mayor of London’s Borough of Culture in 2023. We operate the venue in partnership with Croydon Council, providing a diverse programme of cultural entertainment, business, and community events. Renowned for its world-class acoustics, the venue also hosts national and international orchestras for rehearsals, recordings, and performances.
