Nuffield Health Doncaster: Swimming pool ceiling collapses at fitness and wellbeing club after leak

The venue shared the news on social media earlier today, revealing contractors will visit the site tomorrow, when next steps will be decided. It has since been confirmed to the Free Press that no one was hurt in the incident.

As part of the announcement of the news on Facebook, the team at the Doncaster venue asked for patience as they were “dealing with a very high volume of complaints and comments”. They wrote: “We are more than happy to discuss your membership in the club over a coffee and will keep you informed of the situation as it evolves.”

The venue on White Rose Way features a range of facilities, including a gym, swimming pool, sauna pool, sauna and steam room. Membership is also said to include access to a “huge range of classes”. Other facilities at the club have reopened since the collapse.

A Nuffield Health spokesperson says: “The safety and wellbeing of our members is our first priority. A small section of cladding above the swimming pool at Nuffield Health Doncaster Fitness & Wellbeing Centre fell on Wednesday evening, after our facility had closed. No individuals were hurt and our facility reopened today as usual with all services open, just the swimming pool, sauna, spa and steamroom are closed. We are working to safely reopen the swimming pool as soon as we can we will keep our members closely informed.”
