We know how important the Sauna Suite is to many of our customers, and we appreciate your patience while we explored every possible option to reopen it ahead of the wider redevelopment of the Citadel Leisure Centre. 

After a detailed review of contractor quotations and costs, we have concluded that refurbishing and reopening the Sauna Suite as a standalone project is not financially viable. This was not an easy decision, and we apologise for the time taken to reach this point. It was essential that we carried out a thorough assessment to ensure all options were fully considered. 

The good news is that the Sauna Suite will form an integral part of the Citadel’s redevelopment project. The project team is currently reviewing customer feedback alongside recent survey works to finalise the exact location and design of a modernised Sauna Suite within the new facility. These details will be shared on our dedicated project microsite once this work is complete. 

As work on the wider redevelopment progresses, further updates and information will be made available via the latest news section.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support.
