In 2007 the new library opened in Downham. The Downham Health and Leisure Centre is a model for community health, leisure and well-being provision. It is situated off Moorside Road on the site of the former Downham baths and library buildings.

As well as a new library with modern facilities, a meeting space and dedicated ICT, the fantastic array of facilities provided on site include:

  • a leisure centre with a 25m six-lane swimming pool, a learner pool, fitness suite, dance and activity studios
  • exhibition space
  • café
  • 'AccessPoint' for council services
  • creche
  • community hall with meeting room and kitchen
  • two GP surgeries, community health and family planning clinics, dental practice and chiropodist.

You can see pictures of the library online and read more about the project on the Downham Health and Leisure Centre pages.
