Pavilion Leisure Centre

The Pavilion is a truly unique fully inclusive mainstream facility established as a Creative Well-being Activity Centre. It caters for people with various levels of ability.

Innovative concept of our facility can be best described as a combination between a mainstream health & fitness centre, and a smaller scale arts venue with a variety of creative art and well-being activities.

We run a multi-faceted well-being programme at the Pavilion aimed at addressing physical health our clients. Apart from structured fitness programme facilitated in our gym and sports hall, we also run a massage and hydro pool sessions as required by clients

Our restaurant serves high quality lunches and clients are able to learn the cooking skills in our training kitchen. We also offer a voluntary employment opportunity of running our cafe.

Jon's practice provides individual and group music therapy sessions for our clients as well as it enables them to create and record their own songs.
