Positive response from members

We’ve welcomed back thousands of members since we’ve re-opened our leisure centres, with members enjoying gym sessions, group exercise classes and swimming. It’s been great to see people back in our centres, being active and returning to their individual fitness journeys with us.

It’s been a really positive to see the response from our members who have been keen to get back to working out and back in the pool. But don’t just take our word for it. Check out some of the comments we’ve received from our members below.

“Had a family swim and spin class at Swinton last week and a gym session at Broughton yesterday. Usual friendly staff, plenty of spaces, clearly everything being cleaned very well. Thanks for all the prep you’ve all put in!”

“Had my first swim this afternoon at Broughton. A huge thanks to all staff who are working tirelessly to keep us all safe. They could not do anymore with all measures they have in place.”

“Well done! Visit to Eccles today so happy to be back. All extremely well set up with personal spaces set out to keep social distancing but plenty of room to take part in the class.”

“Eccles up and running really well, so good to be back. Son also went for a family swim and said it was well set up. Well done everyone!”

“Visited Swinton & Pendlebury for the first time since the re-opening. The gym was well managed, was able to carry out a session even with social distancing in place. Well done to all the staff involved, will call again.”

“Good to be back, great work by all!”

“Loving the lane swims @salfordleisure, everyone sticks to the appropriate lane speed and there is plenty of room to pass/overtake.”

“We attended a family swim session on Sunday. I actually preferred it to have a zone just for us. Kids loved being back in the pool and the staff were very helpful.”

“Two very happy and quiet children absorbed in new books after a trip to Eccles Library today. We have missed the libraries incredibly and can’t wait for them all to re-open for browsing.”
