Cosmopolitan Neighbourhood Fitness Centres

Cosmopolitan Neighbourhood Fitness Centres are funded by the Scottish Executive’s Better Neighbourhood Services Fund and operated by West Dunbartonshire Council’s Leisure Services Section. The fund enables local authorities and their community planning partners to improve access to new and enhanced services, particularly for young people and residents from most disadvantaged neighbourhoods.

The Centres are designed to provide you with all you need to become more active, healthier and happier. Located in three of

West Dunbartonshire’s secondary schools, the centres aim to provide the opportunity of accessing quality, affordable fitness suites close to where you live or work – especially if you have not used a leisure centre or fitness club before.

Open in the evenings from Monday to Friday, each fitness centre has a fitness suite including modern, easy to use fitness equipment, changing and shower accommodation. The facilities are staffed by qualified fitness instructors who will provide advice on an appropriate exercise programme for you and also help you use the equipment safely.

The health statistics of West of Scotland, including West Dunbartonshire are amongst the worst in Europe particularly for heart disease and obesity. By providing these centres the Council’s aim is to help make West Dunbartonshire a healthier place to live and work. It is well known that taking regular exercise can have a big impact on an individual’s lifestyle. Apart from the health aspects of reducing the risk of heart disease and heart attacks, helping to control blood pressure and assisting in weight control, exercise can reduce stress, improve sleep and help you feel good about yourself.

We need your help – if you make a commitment to make your lifestyle more active by using one of our facilities we’ll be committed to helping you succeed. The first step is the hardest but please contact or visit your local centre to find out more. Our staff are friendly, the facilities are welcoming and we are here to help you.

To ensure you receive value for money there are a variety of payment methods available and staff can help you choose the best option based on your personal circumstances. Our friendly staff will advise you on your first visit - simply pay as you go or take advantage of our membership packages.
