Leisure Centre Switch Sparks Staff Fears
28 Feb
Summary
- Staff worry about job security as centres change operators.
- Members question future pricing and accessibility of facilities.
- Council promises modernization and discounts for specific groups.

Concerns are mounting among staff and members at West Northamptonshire leisure centres slated for a management transition. As of 2026-02-28T08:20:58+00:00, the planned handover from Trilogy Active to Everyone Active, set for April, has led to anxieties about job security and service continuity.
Employees, like a swimming teacher at Mounts Baths, report a significant lack of communication regarding their future roles and the continuation of existing classes. This uncertainty is a primary concern for many.
Members are also voicing unease, with some cancelling memberships due to worries about potential price increases. The accessibility of facilities for all residents, particularly community groups, is under scrutiny.
West Northamptonshire Council has stated its confidence in the transition, anticipating strengthened leisure offerings and increased opportunities for residents. They plan a comprehensive modernization and refurbishment program for facilities like the historic Mounts Baths.
Additionally, discounts are planned for specific demographics, including young people who have been in care, carers, armed forces personnel, veterans, emergency service workers, students, and seniors. Trilogy Active also stated its commitment to customers, promising further updates.
