ANGLIAN LEISURE LAUNCH

Dear Members
Introducing Anglian Leisure
We are very pleased to announce the renaming of our sport, fitness and leisure centres under a
new brand, Anglian Leisure, aimed at uniting our facilities across the Trust.
The rebranding comes after recent survey findings submitted by parents, members of staff, the local
community, pupils, and sports centre members across a range of schools, found that 70% of
respondents felt that creating a single brand for booking all school facilities would help to improve
Anglian Learning’s offer.
With the rebranding we have also taken this opportunity to invest in the development of our leisure
centres so that they can continue to deliver a high-quality service to their local communities.
The centres will have a better online presence, more flexible class times and an online booking
system to help improve user experience, with every membership fee being invested back into the
schools, providing better opportunities for pupils and the community in the future.
We hope our new facilities become a dedicated place for young people and the wider community to
enjoy the wellbeing and mental health benefits physical activity has to offer and look forward to
seeing the community become fitter, healthier and happier as a result.
The first centres to be renamed will become Anglian Leisure Bottisham, Anglian Leisure Linton,
Anglian Leisure Netherhall and Anglian Leisure Sawston. Anglian Leisure Joyce Frankland and
Bassingbourn are expected to follow soon.
This will help provide a clear link to the Trust and how they play an important role at the heart of its
communities to ensure all leisure centres are inclusive, affordable and varied.
Community-use of school facilities is an important and vital source of additional funding for schools
and this income can be reinvested to create further opportunities and learning experiences for our
pupils and the communities the schools serve, making this a mutually beneficial partnership for all.
If you have any questions about using any of the facilities offered by Anglian Leisure Linton, please
