Securing investment into the right facilities that deliver financial and social value
Are you wanting to explore the redevelopment or remodelling of a facility but not sure where to start?
SLC are highly experienced at taking local authorities through every stage of the process whether that be undertaking a full feasibility study, developing business cases for existing plans or supporting wider masterplanning.
Our feasibility work has delivered c.£400m of successful capital projects including park developments, leisure facilities, cultural and arts venues and sports grounds. We have enabled another £300m investment due to be constructed in the next 3 years.
Increasingly our work focuses on developing broader, more inclusive active wellbeing ‘hubs’ rather than traditional leisure facilities. We explore opportunities for integrated health and community services within new facilities that can better meet wider needs.
Our approaches to co-designing facility mixes and masterplans sets us apart through sensitive and informed engagement and collaboration.
We have developed transparent and robust business plans for major UK and international sport and leisure facilities. From award winning aquatic centres in Australia, new active wellbeing hubs, wet and dry leisure complexes, facility extensions and parks masterplans, we provide the assurance to invest.
We also have deep experience of creating £multi-million business cases for core cities and local authorities with risk and sensitivity applied. Recent examples include £117m in Sheffield, £40m in North Yorkshire and £44m in Westminster being secured and delivered.
Our exceptional track record has earnt us a strong reputation for producing robust and realistic development proposals based on decades of industry knowledge and insight.
We work with the very best architects, technical specialists and cost consultants and apply a rigorous approach to developing the best solution for you.
We also provide independent scrutiny and evaluation of ‘end to end delivery solutions’ from organisations such as Alliance Leisure. This provides the rigour and independence to support major investments.
Turning bold ideas into investable, high‑impact sport and wellbeing spaces that deliver lasting social and financial value.
