Severn Trent
Severn Trent are planning on installing 20,000 Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS) across the town between now and Spring 2025, reducing the flood risk for 90,000 people!
The investment at Warsop will be up to £40,000 for Severn Trent’s SuDs project. The Severn Trent project is to plant Swale which will soak up rain water and prevent excess water from being pumped back into the sewage system – it’s an environmentally friendly way of reclaiming excess rainwater that will fall from the slanted roof of the new building at Warsop Health Hub.

Towns Fund
The scheme is one of six projects included in the council’s bid to the Government’s Towns Fund. Of the £12.3m awarded from the Fund to the district, £3m is allocated to the health hub plan.
On 27 July 2019, the Prime Minister announced that the Towns Fund would support an initial 101 places across England to develop Town Deal proposals, to drive economic regeneration and deliver long-term economic and productivity growth.
A Town Deal is an agreement in principle between government, the Lead Council and the Town Deal Board. It will set out a vision and strategy for the town, and what each party agrees to do to achieve this vision.
Each of the 101 towns selected to work towards a Town Deal also received accelerated funding last year for investment in capital projects that would have an immediate impact and help places “build back better” in the wake of Covid-19.

Here’s a few words from Jack…
“I cannot wait for the health hub to open. It’s exactly what this region needs and has been designed according to feedback from people who live in Warsop. The range of facilities on offer means this will become a genuine community hub, not just for sport and fitness, but as a meeting place, and as somewhere for people to socialise. When we open, we’ll be offering the full health and fitness mix, including a range of workout classes, swimming sessions and lessons, plus exercise referral schemes to gently support people back into more active lifestyles.
It’s a long way off at this point, but please look out for our joining offer, which will launch three months prior to opening. If any Warsop locals have visited our other centres, they’ll know what to expect when the health hub opens. We run clean, well presented leisure centres, offering a range of activities for all ages.”
