Staff at South Reading are brilliant
Staff at South Reading are brilliant. I’m a relative newbie and everyone has been so welcoming and encouraging, and this reflects on the gym- community also. The gym induction by Lisa was excellent, and all the staff- from receptionists to swimming pool lifeguards- are professional, helpful and always willing to advise. Top marks.

I had a few issues with the booking app and getting my details sorted but the staff on the front desk were really helpful and friendly in getting it sorted. Gym was really easy to use and at no time did I feel uncomfortable.

I was delighted to find that the South Reading Leisure Centre is a 20 minute bus journey from my home. The swimming pool is great, space for all abilities, not too busy and lanes available at different times throughout the day. Everyone is friendly and helpful and the app is very user friendly and makes booking simple.

Good customer service
I have recently joined the South Reading Leisure Centre. The membership I chose in the first place wasn't what I needed, so I called Customer Service and a lovely gentleman (sorry I didn't get his name) helped me to change my membership to a more suitable option for my needs. Thank you for the help and advuse.
At the moment, I've used only the swimming pool which was clean, water temp perfect, not too crowded and the lanes are organised for all types of swimmers.
