INTRODUCTION<br />

<strong>Newham</strong> believes in providing the best<br />

opportunities for its residents to get active, to stay<br />

fit <strong>and</strong> healthy <strong>and</strong> to try something new. The free<br />

swim offer for under 16s <strong>and</strong> over 60s has been<br />

tremendously successful with over 5,000 free<br />

swims each month, <strong>and</strong> a further 20,000 during<br />

the school summer holidays.<br />

Swimming is just one of the many pursuits<br />

offered by <strong>Newham</strong>’s four leisure centres.<br />

As well as gyms, exercise classes <strong>and</strong> yoga,<br />

a wide range of sports clubs provide<br />

opportunities for both young <strong>and</strong> old to get<br />

involved. At the Multi-sports Centre at <strong>Newham</strong><br />

�<br />

GLL – LEISURE’S MOST SUCCESSFUL<br />

SOCIAL ENTERPRISE<br />

GLL is not just another leisure company,<br />

but a charitable social enterprise that exists<br />

for the benefit of the community.<br />

As the first leisure operator in the UK<br />

to be awarded the prestigious Social<br />

Enterprise Mark, GLL is distinct from<br />

purely commercial enterprises.<br />

We are a values-based organisation <strong>and</strong><br />

we recognise our responsibility towards our<br />

customers, employees <strong>and</strong> the environment,<br />

within the communities we serve.<br />

Any financial surpluses we generate are<br />

reinvested to provide long-term benefits for our<br />

customers, employees <strong>and</strong> the communities<br />

where we operate.<br />

<strong>Leisure</strong> Centre you can try your h<strong>and</strong> at all sorts<br />

of sports, including fencing, karate, basketball<br />

<strong>and</strong> athletics.<br />

People can also enjoy <strong>Newham</strong>’s many parks <strong>and</strong><br />

open spaces – which is why there is continuous<br />

investment in this area. So why not head down<br />

to your local park <strong>and</strong> discover the trim trails <strong>and</strong><br />

newly installed outdoor gyms across the borough,<br />

or simply enjoy a relaxing stroll in the open air?<br />

Whether young, old, novice or experienced,<br />

<strong>Newham</strong> truly has something for everyone,<br />

so make the most of it.<br />

The beneficiaries of our ongoing reinvestment<br />

<strong>programme</strong> include: building improvements,<br />

staff training <strong>and</strong> development, community<br />

sports <strong>programme</strong>s <strong>and</strong> sports development.<br />

We aim to encourage community involvement<br />

<strong>and</strong> to promote healthy living. We work to<br />

increase levels of physical activity by delivering<br />

sport <strong>and</strong> health <strong>programme</strong>s that reach all<br />

sectors of the community. Our ambition is that<br />

GLL becomes the benchmark for quality leisure<br />

services management within the public sector.<br />

We are also committed to reducing our impact<br />

on the environment <strong>and</strong> we continue to identify<br />

ways to reduce our carbon footprint.<br />
