Manager’s Welcome

It feels great to be heading into June and the start of the meteorological summer although the weather so far doesn’t reflect this! Coming out of the back of what feels like an abundance of school holidays it’s been great to see lots of families getting active together and was definitely a catalyst for us to add extra activities such as a family Bootcamp and a new water fun session!

We have had some maintenance issues with regards to the shower temperatures which has been frustrating for us all but our service contract provider is adamant that they have found a solution and a new system is on order as we speak so please stay with us, the situation will be resolved as quickly as possible.

On a lighter note 2 of our fitness team completed the dirty weekend endurance event along with 2 of our long standing members which was great to see as was the team of bootcampers who have done an excellent job led by Jess over the last 6 weeks… there was even a fleeting guest appearance by me in there!
