For the last few years the local community and surrounding areas of Dartford have been flocking to Fairfield Leisure to enjoy and take on the challenge of the pool inflatable obstacle course.  Following a significant investment from Places Leisure who manage and run the leisure centre on behalf of Dartford Borough Council, this summer is set to see even more visitors through the doors with the launch of a brand new inflatable, twice the size of the existing one!

The new inflatable sees an increase to over 9 challenging fun obstacles to tackle including the ‘tower’, ‘S Bends’ and the ‘Mega slide’ at the end of the course! It’s guaranteed fun for the whole family with children 5 years and over though to adults able to enjoy the fun.  All users will receive a safety briefing before use and safety jackets are provided for all.

Tom Page the General Manager at Fairfield say’s “I am really pleased with the new and improved inflatable.  Our swimming pool program is jam packed with a host of activities and this is really adding to the fun element!  All the Fairfield team are looking forward to inviting customers for this new exhilarating experience!”

Fairfield Leisure has gone from strength to strength since it re-opened its doors to the public again in February 2016.  Since that time it has seen additional significant improvement within the public changing areas,  gym and fitness class areas and the introduction of their popular multi-sport  children’s holiday day camps in each school holiday have made the facility a definite must for the whole family to enjoy.

The centre also offers a popular swim school programme with over 2000 children and adults enrolled on the programme learning and improving their swimming skills along with a large sports course programme engaging the younger generation in sporting activities.

To find out more about any of these activities and more the centre has to offer you can visit their website or call in and speak to the friendly team for a tour of the facilities  www.fairfieldleisure.org
