The Nillumbik Leisure Facilities are much-loved community assets operated in partnership between Nillumbik Shire Council and Aligned Leisure.
The partnership commenced in 2017 managing the Eltham Leisure Centre before expanding in 2020 to include all six of the Council’s leisure facilities. Both Eltham Leisure Centre ($30 million) and Diamond Valley Sports and Fitness Centre ($19 million) have undergone significant redevelopments whilst operated by Aligned Leisure.
