Always looking to raise the leisure management bar, Greenwich Leisure Limited (GLL) is pulling out all the stops to increase its number of customer visits to 44 million this year – up by four million on 2015 fi gures.
Not only that, the trust is also investing in the refurbishment of aquatics facilities at at least two of its leisure centres this year, while continuing to encourage swimming participation across the country. “We’re not just another facilities management company - we want the things we deliver to be different and socially minded,” comments Managing Director Mark Sesnan. “We continue to be a serious player within the local authority leisure centre market. But we will also continue to diversify our business, for example with our wholly-owned estate that currently
includes low-cost accessible gyms, trampoline parks and ice rinks as well as continue to reinvest in our current centres”. GLL is the UK’s largest provider of public pools, working in partnership with more than 30 local councils. Of the 194 leisure centres that GLL operates, 106 have swimming pools, made up of 98 indoor pools and eight outdoor pools. Its fl agship centre is the London Aquatics Centre, home of the 2012 London Legacy and also the world’s most technologically advanced swimming facilities.
GREATEST ATHLETES
“Being able to see members of the public using the same facilities as some of our greatest athletes, some of whom are going to the summer Olympics in Rio this summer, makes the London Aquatics Centre an incredibly special place,” says Mark.
