We continue to ask you to make an appointment for your time in the Gym and although we are allowing 1 hour per…
Read MoreRunning the Distance! Littleport keeps on running!
It is good to hear that Littleport’s popular parkrunning is still continuing but in a different format to the usual large group turnout, with smaller groups of running buddies. They’ve been actively meeting up nearly every Saturday both at the familiar parkrunning venue at Littleport Leisure and around Littleport, and the former has been the starting point for many a pre-registered virtual charity running event.

Its doors face the field and its own car park area, so you may not even really notice it – unless of course you are part of the thriving Littleport scout and guiding activities that take place there!

Read MoreLittleport Leisure: Update from Manager Debra Jordan
Greetings and warm wishes from Littleport Leisure. We have missed you all! As you know, weeks before the lockdown, we had instigated hand cleaning stations, further cleaning of soft play and equipment, plus a complete overhaul of our cleaning practices to disable this horrible germ. These will all be further enhanced to ensure your safety as much as is practicable. We were open for one day in May for blood donors as we felt this…
