The winners of the Members' Choice Health Club Awards for 2013 were announced last night, during an awards event held at The Motorcycle Museum in Birmingham during Leisure Industry Week.

The awards, presented in partnership with Health Club Management magazine, are unique, with members rating their club on the quality of facilities, customer service and value for money.

In the regions, entrants were split into Budget, Mid-Market and Premium categories, ensuring clubs competed with their peers. Winners included Fit4less Dundee, which took gold for Best Budget Club Scotland, and Xercise4less, which won two golds in the budget category in North West and Yorkshire. The regional Premium categories were dominated by LivingWell, which won gold in seven of the 14 regions.
