Sport and leisure facilities in Queens Park

Update - Winter 2017

Construction works by Willmott Dixon to build the new Moberly Sports Centre in Queens Park are currently on track for completion in summer 2018. 

The nearby Jubilee Sports Centre will remain open whilst the new sports centre is built at the Moberly site.

The high quality new leisure centre at Moberly will be bigger than the existing Moberly and Jubilee combined.

This £28 million investment in new sports facilities also includes:

• a community sports facility on the existing site of Jubilee Sports Centre
• an upgraded, free-to-access games area at Queens Park Gardens
• new outdoor fitness equipment at Queens Park Gardens
• a new synthetic football pitch at St. Augustine’s

This will provide a 37% increase in sports provision for the area and upgraded modern facilities.

Working with you

There will be lots of opportunities around the construction of the new leisure centre including apprenticeships and projects with local schools. The latest updates will be in your community newsletters and online.

Funding

Much of the investment in new sport, leisure and community facilities will be funded by the development of 156 new homes across both sites through our development partner Willmott Dixon.

12 high-quality replacement affordable homes will be built on the Jubilee site. 

The redevelopment brings much needed improvements to sport and leisure in Queens Park and South Kilburn by providing a long-term alternative to two underused and ageing sports centres that are no longer fit for purpose.
