Venue Description

Vauxhall Leisure Centre is a leisure centre in the heart of Vauxhall, a two minute walk from Vauxhall train and tube stations. Facilities include a gym, main pool, sauna and steam rooms, and three studios. 

Our gym is for members only but activities such as fitness classes and swimming are available on a casual basis to both members and non-members. Children and adults are also able to book into our Better Swim School.

Please be aware that the centre is cashless.

 

Accessibility

The surrounding streets have dropped curbs and the pavements are wide and clear. The street level, main entrance has double, automatic doors and interior of the building has wide walkways, clear of obstacles. A lift assists access to the first and basement floors.

Toilets

Our accessible toilets and changing rooms are wide enough for wheelchairs, have handrails at the correct height, low level utilities, and emergency cords

Staff

All Better staff undergo Safeguarding training and where possible, disability equality and awareness training. Many of our Fitness Instructors have undertaken additional courses and modules to further their knowledge and understanding specific to disability. Across Lambeth, swim teachers undertook a CPD course in Autism Awareness and teachers can gain more experience coaching disabled persons at our inclusive supported swimming sessions.
