About Us

Leisure Connection

Leisure Connection understands that everyone comes in different shapes and sizes and all with very different health and lifestyle goals.  With this in mind, Leisure Connection cater for everyone from those new to exercise through to Olympic and performance athletes.

Operating over 80 sports and leisure centres on behalf of local authorities, Leisure Connection offers a range of facilities and services for their communities.  From brand new leisure centres to a swimming pool that is over 100 years to private health clubs to corporate fitness and wellness centres.  Leisure Connection also operates four National Sport Centres on behalf of Sport England and welcomes performance athletes including those on the road to the Olympics games as well as members of the local community.

Leisure Connection is working to change the perception of local, community-focused sports and leisure centres. Our centres are equipped with the latest equipment which ensures we can help you reach your goals and challenges. Leisure Connection also offers a wide range of group training classes ranging from ballet fusion - the latest craze from New York - to yoga and aqua-aerobics.  For those users who need a little extra support and motivation to achieve their training goals can take advantage of fully-qualified personal trainers to offer expert advice and guidance.

Water, water everywhere!  Well, in the pool that is!  Many Leisure Connection centres also offer excellent swimming facilities, which are available to everyone, from toddlers to school groups to the serious swimmers.  Leisure Connection's award winning SwimSchool swimming programme teachers over 40,000 children and adults to swim each week and is the largest swimming lesson provider in the UK. The programme is part of the Amateur swimming Associations Aquamark, which is a guarantee that lessons will be of the highest possible standard, both in terms of teaching and customer care.
 
Leisure Connection centres are all about accessibility, people are not pressurised to join on inappropriate and expensive memberships. Leisure Connection offers a range of membership options which are all very cost effective ways to keep fit and healthy, there is also the ability to simply 'pay as you go' at all our facilities which means you can try before making any commitments.
Leisure Connection is constantly improving standards at local leisure centres with a programme of investment to develop facilities, services and teams. Working in partnership with Local Authorities, Leisure Connection has invested in excess of £70 million in local facilities in the last eight years.
Non-sporting leisure facilities also form a core part of the Leisure Connection offer.  Theatres, art venues and a Natural World Centre are all additional strings to the Leisure Connection package.

Leisure Connection is committed to delivering excellence in Sport, Leisure, Health and Well-being.
