Edinburgh Leisure

Who We Are

Wherever you’re at on the map or in life, Edinburgh Leisure is here to help you enjoy a healthier, happier, and more active life. In the heart of communities, we’re the largest provider of sport and leisure facilities across the city. 

We provide activities for everyone as they move through their lives. As a charitable trust, every penny goes back into taking care of the health and wellbeing of Edinburgh.

Edinburgh Leisure is committed to keeping everyone active and well, always.

We know being active improves physical and mental health. So we’re here to support as many people as possible to feel as good as possible.

We manage over 50 sports and leisure facilities across the City. And we provide a range of activities in these facilities for everyone - wherever you're at in life. This includes delivering additional help and targeted health projects for those who need it.

But we can only do it with your help. Whether that's volunteering with us, donating, or just coming in and using us - you help us support the physical and mental health of the city.
