Large parts of Bell’s Sports Centre have been significantly affected by the flood waters during the weekend of the 7th and 8th October.

Perth and Kinross Council met on Wednesday 15th May 2024 and approved the withdrawal of sport and leisure services and activity at Bell's Sport Centre from August 2024.

The Council decided earlier this year that Bell’s, Dewars Centre and Perth Leisure Pool should be consolidated into one facility, so any reinstatement of Bell’s would be at best temporary and cost in the region of £2 million, which is simply uneconomic. What is more, Bell’s has already suffered two significant floods since 2020 and this would leave an uninsured and uninsurable risk of yet another flood event.

There’s still plenty of ways to stay active in Perth at our other venues which include gym, swim and sportshall options. You can view the range of activities available at all our venues including opening times here.

North Inch Campus in Perth is available for a range of sports including, badminton, table tennis, tennis/short tennis, basketball, 5-a-side and more in their indoor sportshalls and outdoor pitches.  The Campus is open Monday to Friday 17:00 - 21:00 and Saturday & Sunday 09:00 - 13:00.

If you are under 16, you cannot use the gym without adult supervision (a parent or guardian who has completed a gym induction). Supervised sessions are available for 12-15 year olds at Perth Leisure Pool on Wednesdays and Fridays 16:00-18:00 and at North Inch Community Campus on Saturdays.

If a session has a yellow ‘Book Now’ button, follow the link to book into the session. If there’s no ‘Book Now’ button it means the session doesn’t need to be booked in advance. 

You can also view and book sessions via our App which is available on Google Play and the App Store. If you’ve already got the App set up for Bell’s Sports Centre, you can add other venues by following our guide here. 

You can find a range of on-demand home workouts on our website here; with everything from HIIT to Core to Pilates there’s sure to be something for everyone.

If you have a Fitness Membership, did you know that you can freeze your membership rather than cancel it; that way we can welcome you back to Bell’s Sports Centre when we fully reopen. If you would like to freeze your membership, please complete this form and we’ll do the rest. 

Please note, if you are planning to attend our fitness classes or are using any other Live Active venue, we would encourage you to keep your membership active, ensuring that you have access to the fantastic range of benefits that our membership offers.  However, if you choose to freeze your membership, you can still pay as you go.
