Richmond upon Thames Council's Environment, Sustainability, Culture and Sports Committee decided in September 2026 that Greenwich Leisure Limited (GLL) will manage the borough's sports centres, including Teddington Pools & Fitness Centre. This move aims to improve financial sustainability and enhance resident access to facilities, with a proposal to consolidate directly managed centres within the existing GLL contract.
The decision follows a forecast that the current direct management model for five of the council's sports centres, including Teddington Pools & Fitness Centre, would require a subsidy of approximately £397,000 in the 2026/27 financial year. No further meetings are currently scheduled on this topic.
