Sports Centre changing room deep cleaning

From Monday 4 November, we are starting deep cleaning of the Sports Centre changing rooms.

We will be directing members to the Gender Neutral changing and showering facilities between halls 2 and 3 during this time. The schedule is as follows:

  • Mondays: 6am to 12pm - Women's changing room
  • Tuesdays: 6am to 12pm - Men's changing room

This will be ongoing until we hit the spot, but we do expect cleaning times to gradually reduce.

We apologise for the inconvenience.
