Update on Everton Park Lifestyles Centre Liverpool Express

Earlier this month, the City Council had to close part of Everton Park Lifestyles Centre due to structural damage to the roof.

This means the dry-side facilities, like the sports hall, gym, and squash courts, are temporarily closed, and we’re asking members to use these facilities at an alternative Lifestyles Centre. The swimming pool at Everton Park Lifestyles remains open and operational as usual.

The City Council is working with a contractor to carry out a detailed assessment to inform recommendations on next steps. Once this is completed, there will be a tender and procurement process for the necessary remedial works.

Liverpool City Council’s Cabinet Member for Health, Wellbeing and Culture, Councillor Harry Doyle, said: “We understand the concerns raised by our Lifestyles members, community and gymnastic groups who use the centre, and will keep listening and working with you to address them.

“I am in regular contact with the City Council teams involved to ensure the issue will be resolved as soon as possible.

“We’d like to thank everyone for their understanding and patience, and we’ll provide a further update once plans are finalised.”

In relation to the Community Asset Transfer, discussions with Notre Dame Catholic Academy are ongoing, and the City Council remains committed to working together with them, to ensure the facilities have a sustainable future.
