Kevin Yates, Head of Marketing and Retention for Leisure Connection said:
As an operator and indeed an industry we can’t offer a one size fits all approach to the delivery of health and fitness. We can’t ignore the fact that as a nation we are becoming more obese, we’re aging and we’re growing in numbers. This training has been specifically developed to respond to these changes and has been delivered to our entire fitness team in a bid to provide them with the tools they need to fight obesity and provide our communities with programmes that get more people, more active, more often.
