Mid Devon District Council is significantly investing in Active Tiverton (formally Exe Valley Leisure Centre) with upgrades to its poolside changing facilities.

Work on the new leisure changing rooms will begin on 21 April and is expected to be completed by 6 June 2025. From 21 April onward, swimmers will need to arrive "swim ready" and leave without changing onsite, as the changing rooms will remain closed until the refurbishment is complete. As part of this process, the swimming pools will be closed from 12 to 28 May for essential repairs.

The work is part of a wider improvement programme that also coincides with the launch of the new look leisure service, Active Mid Devon.

Active Mid Devon is about getting more people more active, as well as being active in our communities. Our staff at all three sites, in Cullompton, Tiverton and Crediton undertake customer health checks, work with GPs on health referral schemes and encourage clubs to meet and socialise on site.  We feel this new name, and a new look, will encompass this and shows our customers that we offer much more than sports halls to hire and swimming sessions to attend.

Andy Mackie, Leisure Operations Manager, commented:

“We are thrilled to bring these upgrades to Active Tiverton. We know these improvements will provide a more comfortable and accessible environment for everyone who uses the centre.

While we understand there will be a temporary inconvenience, we ask for your patience as we carry out this work. This is part of our continued investment in the facilities and services that benefit the entire community.”

The upgraded changing rooms will reopen on 6 June 2025, offering a fresh, modern, and more comfortable environment.

These upgrades follow similar improvements to poolside changing facilities at Active Crediton (formally Lords Meadow Leisure Centre):
