A popular Hassocks health club has undergone a £3.5 million renovation to its facilities. David Lloyd Wickwoods, formerly Wickwoods Country Club, has undergone significant redevelopment since it was acquired by David Lloyd Clubs in 2023.

The transformation includes a new gym with more than 100 stations, four new exercise studios, upgraded spa facilities, and additional racquet courts. The club has also only recently transitioned to an adult-only policy with increased membership fees, although the changes were communicated to members in advance of taking effect. The transformation includes additional racquet courts.
