Its bustling main street is home to a wide range of independent retailers, local businesses, and supermarkets, with more extensive shopping facilities available at nearby Cameron Toll Shopping Centre, or at Straiton Retail Park and Fort Kinnaird Retail Park just a short drive or bus journey away. Newington offers a superb range of sport and leisure activities, particularly at the Royal Commonwealth Pool and fitness centre.
