Fusion Lifestyle and Bedford Borough Council have been following national guidance regarding the safe reopening of leisure facilities within the Borough during COVID-19.
Since mid-May the Council and Fusion have reopened Mowsbury Golf Club, providing a leisure offer for customers in line with public health guidance and guidance around safe outdoor sporting activities.
However, with the infection rate having been higher locally than in other places, indoor leisure facilities will not be opening on 25 July. Indoor facilities are more susceptible to the virus being spread.
We know leisure facilities are really important for health and wellbeing and we are working to open again as soon as they are safe and viable, so we hope that you will bear with us during this time.
The safety of residents, staff and visitors to our leisure facilities is our priority and we are working on plans to reopen when it is safe to do so and in line with national guidance regarding the leisure sector.
The Bedford Sport Live website is continuing to deliver free, online sports classes including gentle exercise, yoga, Tai Chi, and a range of chair-based exercises on the Bedford Sport website. All of the sessions are gentle, informal and you can take part in as much or as little as you wish.
This decision will be kept under review. Gym members are encouraged to keep an eye out for future updates from Fusion Lifestyle.

To ensure that everyone who has a right to vote is on the Electoral Register, Bedford Borough Council is required by law to carry out an ‘Annual Canvass’ which has now started across the Borough.
The Government has changed the process so that the Council is able to use information already held to confirm voter registration details. In many cases, this means that households will be contacted by post confirming their details are correct and they do not need to take any further action. However if you do have changes in your household that the Council is not aware of please email electoral.registration@bedford.gov.uk
If the Council hasn’t been able to confirm voter registration details for a household, you will receive a form asking you to confirm these details.
If you receive one of these forms, please check the details for your household and follow the instructions on the form to respond by text, online, phone or email.
If required to, please respond by Monday 10th August. no response is received from a household where details are not confirmed, the Council is legally required to send up to three reminders. This is a cost to not only the Council but also the environment so please respond as soon as you can.
