GL-14 to open Letchworth site next week

Manchester-based health club operator GL-14 will open its second site at Fairfield Hall, Letchworth, Hertfordshire next week.

Facilities at the club will include three exercise studios, a designated boxing area and a mezzanine gym space fitted with Star Trac equipment and a Fitlinxx management system.

There will also be a relaxation area, featuring a sauna, steam room, spa pool and swimming pool.

Georgina Livesey, managing director of GL-14, said: “GL-14 Fairfield will offer a ‘boutique’ approach to leisure in an environment which is sophisticated, yet un-intimidating, and very user friendly.

“We feel that it is crucial for members to be relaxed when sharing their aims with us so that we can help them to achieve their goals. ”
