In the heart of Sheffield, near the O2 Academy and Crucible Theatre, Ponds Forge International Sports Centre is a leisure centre with everything you need.
Drop in for a swim session in their Olympic-sized pool or try out the deepest diving pool, home to the GB Diving Squad. Try out one of their many group fitness classes, which include spinning, BodyPump and Kettlebells! Or simply pop in to use their gym whilst running errands around town.
It’s always good to be home! Back in Sheffield and straight to the swimming lanes at Ponds Forge. I used to swim all the time and had kinda forgotten how nice it is to switch off and escape for a while.” - @tamzinlena
After getting a dose of fitness at Ponds Forge, head to the stunning Botanist for a rewarding cocktail and some fancy nibbles. This venue offers live music, an extensive menu of botanical cocktails and a delicious menu with vegan, dairy-free and gluten-free options.
Try a fragrant Malaysian vegetable curry or their famous hanging kebabs - the tasty halloumi and falafel kebab will get you drooling. Finish your evening with a Mediterranean Martini, a Beetroot Blush, or the epic 'All the Greens'. This plant-powered elixir will certainly pop a spring in your step.
