61 Site Name Postcode Ward Stations Ownership Facility Age Refurbished Access Convent of Jesus and Mary Language College NW10 4EP Kensal Green Capacity Ratios Based on 1258 fitness stations, a calculation of all Brent’s health and fitness capacity ratio shows there are 4.77 fitness stations per 1000 population which compares to a London average of 6.19 fitness stations per 1000 population. There are only 299 (23%) fitness stations available on a pay and play basis. To bring the current level of provision in health and fitness facilities in line with the London average, Brent would require an additional 455 fitness stations across the borough now, and by 2016 the shortfall could increase to 727, as shown in the table below. The capacity ratios need to be used with caution as they work on the basis that the London averages are adequate when they may not be.

Chapter Six Indoor Sports Facility Provision Quality The health and fitness sites in Brent are relatively new or recently refurbished as customers expect to see modern equipment in gyms. The average age of the facilities is 5 years old and this will mean that capacity will not be affected as much in these facilities. The 4 local authority sports centres health and fitness facilities have all had extensions and / or new equipment installed in the last two years. Accessibility Map 34 indicates that the publicly accessible health and fitness centres are located close to the Southern Borough boundary and in Northwick Park and Sudbury wards. There are areas within Welsh Harp and Dollis Hill wards where residents are outside the recommended 1.6km walking catchment area of any health and fitness provision. Registered membership and private facilities are the only provision in the Queensbury, Barnhill, Alperton and Mapesbury wards and no facilities are actually located in Welsh Harp, Dollis Hill, Dudden Hill, Kenton, Preston Wembley Central and Fryent wards. Map 34: Catchment map – health and fitness facilities Location of Health and Fitness Facilities Legend Ward Boundaries Pay & Play Registered Membership Use Private Pay & Play Buffer 1.6km Reg Member Use Buffer 1.6km Private Buffer 1.6km # Map 35 shows how long it would take people to walk to the nearest health and fitness facility (all providers). This shows that residents living in parts of Preston, Welsh Harp Barnhill, Dollis Hill and Dudden Hill wards have to walk between 23 and 29 minutes to the nearest health and fitness facility. This map doesn’t take into account which facilities are private, registered membership and which ones are publicly accessible. The majority of fitness members as stated by the Fitness Industry Association (FIA) report into fitness memberships (2007) are willing to travel up to 2 miles for a local authority health and fitness facility, however for private health and fitness facilities people are willing to travel up to 3 miles.
