Other leisure facilities

As well as our Active North Yorkshire leisure venues in the Harrogate, Knaresborough, Ripon, Selby and Tadcaster areas you can also find a range of leisure centres, swimming pools and other leisure facilities across the county.

On 1 September, Selby and Tadcaster leisure and wellbeing hubs became the first to operate under Active North Yorkshire, followed by venues in the Harrogate, Knaresborough and Ripon area on 1 December.

This was the latest stage of our plan to bring all our leisure services in-house, which includes over 20 leisure centres and swimming pools. 

See more about our leisure venues in the Harrogate, Knaresborough, Ripon, Selby and Tadcaster areas on our Active North Yorkshire page.

Active North Yorkshire will be focused on supporting everyone in the community to be active, with an increased focus on improving physical and mental health.

Under Active North Yorkshire our leisure centres will become active wellbeing hubs. Customers can still access all the current activities, but there will be additional targeted activities, for example to support people managing long term health conditions. There will also be more locally based activities and services and increased support for community based sport.

Richmondshire Leisure Trust, Zest and Craven will join Active North Yorkshire in 2025 and the leisure centres in the former Ryedale and Scarborough areas will come on board in 2027.

We would like to assure you that we aim to keep service disruption to a minimum. Your membership and the activities and services available at your local centre will continue as usual and will be keeping you updated regularly.
