GLL will officially take over management of The Sovereign Centre under its Better brand on 1st April 2025, after months of uncertainty and local protests.
To mark this exciting new chapter, the Sovereign Centre’s fun pool will be officially reopened on Saturday 5th April 2025 after a closure of nine months. Local MP Josh Babarinde will be attending, along with other members of the council.
Over the next three years, GLL will invest a minimum of £1million in the Sovereign Centre in collaboration with Eastbourne Borough Council. The majority of this will be spent on maintaining and upgrading crucial plant and equipment, as well as addressing structural issues. Customer facing areas such as the gym and reception will also be refreshed.
Established in 1993, GLL is the largest UK-based charitable social enterprise delivering leisure, health and community services. Operating under its Better brand, it manages 250 public sport and leisure centres, 113 libraries and 10 children’s centres in partnership with 50 local councils, public agencies and sporting organisations.
