By Pete Hayman
Stratford Park Leisure Centre in Stroud, Gloucestershire, has reopened its doors following the completion of an extensive £750,000 modernisation programme at the venue.
Work included the introduction of new fitness equipment; a new studio; a new health suite with sauna and steamroom; and a revamped sports hall floor, as well as a redecoration.
Management of the centre has now transferred from Stroud District Council to Sports and Leisure Management, which will run the facility under the Everyone Active brand.
