Roe Valley Leisure Centre is a modern leisure complex centrally situated in the town of Limavady. The Centre is owned & managed by Limavady Borough Council.
Comprising of pools, sports halls, fitness suite, health suite, squash courts & rooms, the centre caters for sports, fitness and recreation activities. Our facilities also allow us to cater for meetings, conferences, birthday parties & concerts.
In 2005, Council entered a public/private partnership with Competition Line UK for the provision of our fitness suite facilities. Through this agreement we are able to provide up to date equipment in a modern environment that is a pleasure to train in. More information about the fitness suite can be obtained through the facilities pages or by clicking here.
Since June 2007, the Centre has been Quest Resgistered - Quest is the UK Quality Scheme for Sport and Leisure. It is a tool for 
continuous improvement, designed primarily for the management of leisure facilities and leisure development. Quest defines industry standards and good practice and encourages their ongoing development and delivery within a customer focused management framework. The work done in achieving this award is testament to the dedication and hard work of the staff at RVLC. Such hard work was further rewarded in June 2009 when, following assessment, the centre was awarded the status of "highly commended" which confirmed the staff's dedication to the process of continuous improvement.

RVLC also participates in the UK-wide Leisurewatch scheme aimed at enhancing the safety of children and vulnerable adults.
The aims of Leisurewatch are to increase awareness of the potential risks posed to children by sexual offending in public leisure spaces; to reduce the risks posed by
those who sexually offend by educating responsible groups in the community; to empower responsible groups to take action.
The scheme is based on training for operational staff in leisure-focused facilities. It focuses on typical grooming behaviour and the signs and symptoms of sex offending. The training equips staff with knowledge of the agencies that manage sex offenders in the community, and their powers, and procedures for responding to suspicious situations.
Staff in the leisure facilities are put in touch with named police officers responsible for community safety in their local area. They then work together to implement a
system for responding appropriately to concerns they may have about any individual within the facility. The assumption is that by intervening early, potential
offences may be stopped and potential offenders may be detected.
Leisurewatch complements procedures already in place within RVLC, which make staff aware of actions that can be taken in potentially harmful situation.
The scheme underpins the centre's commitment to be responsible and observant leisure providers.
