Leisure Centre Wins Prestigious BREEAM Award
Just weeks after opening its doors to the public, the stunning Bletchley Leisure Centre has scooped its first award.
The £21m venue has been awarded a prestigious BREEAM Award at the Ecobuild Exhibition at Earls Court on 3rd March and was collected by SDC Director Craig Millar and Milton Keynes Council Leisure and Sports boss Paul Sanders.
Paul Sanders said "This has been a very fruitful project with SDC, many years in the planning, and we were pleased to be able to open the doors of the new look leisure centre at the start of the year with a facility that clearly has its eyes on limiting its environmental footprint"
The BREEAM Awards recognise and reward those involved in the design and construction of the highest scoring buildings certified under BREEAM.
A BREEAM Excellent rating is a pre-qualification, so the winners truly represent the top examples of sustainable design. The awards are not subjective as each development has been independently assessed and certified. In order to win an award, each building must have excelled in every environmental category within BREEAM (e.g. from Energy to Ecology) and therefore winners represent a holistic approach to delivering environmental sustainability.
