    “I joined the gym over 10 years ago after visiting the Joint Care Clinic after a nasty injury.

    I was advised to join the gym to help with my rehab. I followed a training programme given to me by the sports centre staff to help rehab my injury and have been here ever since!

    The quality of the facilities is very good and perfectly suited to what I want to do. I feel that there is a perfect balance of cardio and resistance/weight machines.”
    Dave Crawford
