Sporta members to create national chain of gyms
Members of the Sports and Recreation Trust Association (sporta) are finalising plans to create a nationwide chain of leisure centres and fitness suites.
The move, which can be seen as an expansion of the current UK Fitness Network (UKFN), could result in linking more than 900 centres across the country – making it the largest gym chain in the UK.
UKFN currently includes 14 leisure trusts, giving the public access to 127 leisure centre gyms.
Trusts taking part in UKFN allow each others' members to "pay and play" at their sites.
