“For the third year in a row, we’re particularly pleased to have been able to award a large amount of funding to help safeguard the long-term future of numerous leisure centres by making them more energy efficient and sustainable. These projects will also generate sizeable carbon savings, helping to support Wales’ climate change targets.”
Minister for Sport, Jack Sargeant, said:
"This £3.3 million investment represents our commitment to creating an active Wales where sport and physical activity are accessible to everyone, from grassroots participants to our most talented athletes.
“By prioritising projects that make sport more inclusive, support athletic development and improve energy efficiency, we're not only enhancing facilities across all corners of Wales but also contributing to our climate change targets through sustainable improvements.”
All of the grants have been made possible thanks to a total of £10m in capital funding from the Welsh Government for 2025 – 26. Details will soon be announced about how the remaining £6.7m will be invested.
