The project was procured under the UK Leisure Framework with Alliance Leisure. Pellikaan became involved from RIBA stage 3 to develop the Warsop Health Hub scheme to the next stages in partnership with Roberts Limbrick Architects, Furness Partnership (structural engineer) and CGP (MEP consultant), who were already involved in the project early on.

The centre features a state-of-the-art gym with the latest equipment and a 15 x 8 metre swimming pool. The pool is equipped with a child-friendly splash zone with various play elements. There is also a multi-purpose sports hall with movable partition that provides space for various sports and group activities. Outside, a MUGA court has been provided.

At Warsop Health Hub, accessibility is key. The building is fully designed with the needs of disabled people in mind. Visitors benefit from step-free access, lifts and a specially equipped toilet, so that everyone feels comfortable and welcome. From the café, the central point of the building, you can see all the main sports functions at once, encouraging visitors to exercise – seeing exercise, makes you exercise!

What really sets Warsop Health Hub apart is the high level of finishing. The municipal building exudes a luxury private club feel.

We reduced environmental impact and the hub was designed as a full-electric building with a highly efficient building fabric and installations such as Air Source Heat Pumps. To ensure the long-term sustainability of the new centre, solar panels have been installed along with an attenuation basin, as part of Severn Trent’s sustainable drainage systems (SuDS) programme.

This project is a valuable addition to the Warsop community and reflects our commitment to sustainability, inclusivity and quality. What is special about this project is that we were able to deliver it three months early. We are very proud of the final result!
