Important update regarding the Clay Cross Active development

Firstly, we extend our sincerest apologies for the delays experienced due to the administration of our previous contractor, ISG.

This has impacted the construction world throughout the whole of the UK and we appreciate your patience and understanding during this period.

Since the announcement (of ISG going into administration) We have been working extremely hard with our partner Alliance Leisure in the background to progress the works as quickly as possible.

As previously stated, Universal Civils & Build has been appointed as the new contractor for the project. They have already secured and made the site safe, and will be intensifying work from December.

What this means for Clay Cross Active:

We are now targeting an opening in early summer 2025 and will confirm an exact date in the coming months,

We are excited about the progress and look forward to delivering a state-of-the-art health and community hub for Clay Cross. Further updates will be provided through our social media channels and the Council’s website.

If you have any queries, especially regarding club activities and bookings, which could include new bookings, please do not hesitate to contact our team at ccaenquiries@ne-derbyshire.gov.uk

Thank you for your understanding and support.
