We are encouraging families to make the most of affordable activities this summer with the return of the SPACE Leisure Pass, helping young people stay active, try something new and enjoy positive things to do during the school holidays.
The pass gives 8 to 17-year-olds access to a wide range of affordable activities across Burntwood Leisure Centre, Lichfield Leisure Centre and Beacon Park.
It also supports the council’s priority of helping residents become more active, more often and for longer, while giving families an affordable way to access local leisure facilities over the summer.
The pass includes unlimited swimming during public swimming sessions, Floats and Fun swimming sessions, Aqua Scramble sessions, gym access for 14 to 17-year-olds before 6pm, off-peak court hire for tennis, badminton, squash and table tennis, Getin2it summer holiday activities including wheelchair basketball and kickboxing, Adventure Golf at Beacon Park* and discounts on leisure centre activities, including swimming, for 12 months from the date of issue.
The passes go on sale at Burntwood and Lichfield Leisure Centres from Monday 13 July and are valid from Monday 27 July until Friday 28 August 2026.
A limited number of passes are available for £12, thanks to part-funding from the Staffordshire Commissioner’s Office. Once these have sold out, passes will be available for £20.
Councillor Andy Smith, Deputy Leader and Cabinet Member for Leisure and Major Projects, said:
“The SPACE Leisure Pass is excellent value and gives young people the opportunity to stay active, try something new and enjoy a wide range of activities throughout the summer holidays.
“We’re delighted to be able to offer a number of passes at a subsidised price thanks to the support of the Staffordshire Commissioner’s Office, helping make healthy, enjoyable activities accessible to more young people across the district."
A Participant Consent Form must be completed by a parent or carer before taking part in any of the activities. All activities are subject to change and availability, and terms and conditions apply.
