Littlehampton Wave leisure centre remains closed with no timescale for reopening after a power cut last week.

The fitness complex – which comprises a swimming pool, fitness suite and an interactive games studio – has been closed since Friday morning (February 17). Electrical contractors have been working over the weekend to repair the power failure to no avail.

The centre posted an update on social media at 11am today (Monday, February 20).
