Alliance Leisure Knaresborough

In Knaresborough, a new-build leisure and wellness centre will provide a six-lane 25metre pool, activity pool with flume, sauna and steam room, fitness suite and studio, group cycle studio and café. Outside a large modern play area will be added, with sustainable travel encouraged through the installation of electric car charging points and bicycle storage.

The centre will be built to a BREEAM standard of ‘excellent’ and will incorporate high efficiency building materials, air source heat pumps and solar panels to reduce the carbon footprint. BREEAM is a recognised scheme that provides third-party certification for the assessment of the sustainability performance of individual buildings. Meeting the “excellent” standard of efficiency will support the Council’s ambition to deliver a net zero-carbon economy by 2038.

The proposed design will include an AdeSmoke® automated fire curtain and AdeShade® Louvres.
