A great sports and leisure centre
For myself after a spell of ill health returning to the gym seemed difficult but after a visit to the centre it was really easy to speak with staff join classes and become a member in a very short time, and now with the group Session's i attend twice a week

Hi Julie,
Thank you for your feedback! I’m sorry to hear that you’re having trouble with the pool schedule at the Eastern Leisure Centre. I completely understand how important it is to have flexible access, especially if the 18:30 time isn’t available for you.
Could you please provide more details about the issue? Is it that the pool is not open at that time, or are there restrictions preventing you from using it at 18:30? If there’s something we can do to adjust or better communicate the schedule, we’d love to help make it easier for you.
Your experience is important to us, and we want to ensure that our pool times work for all members. Let us know how we can assist you further!
Kind regards,
Charmaine

Hello Rachel,
I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for your wonderful review. Your kind words mean a lot to us and motivate us to continue providing excellent services.
I am thrilled to hear that the staff at Eastern Leisure Centre went above and beyond to make your son's first swimming lesson a success. We understand that it can be nerve-wracking for children to try something new, especially when it involves water. Therefore, we are pleased to know that our team was accommodating and patient with your son, making him feel comfortable and safe during the lesson.
We genuinely hope that your son enjoyed his time at the swimming lesson and will look forward to attending future lessons. Thank you once again for your review and for choosing Eastern Leisure Centre. We appreciate your business and look forward to serving you in the future.
Best regards,
Charmaine
Just about better than nothing.
Since being taken over by better, everything has gone downhill. Public swimming sessions have been sidelined, chopped and changed in favour of money spinners. The changing rooms are dirty and in need of a good clean. Hairdryers are broken for months on end.

Good morning GH and thank you for sharing your feedback with us.
We understand how important cleanliness and hygiene are, especially when it comes to leisure centres. We are sorry to hear that your recent experience at our Leytonstone leisure centre did not meet your expectations. As a company, we take pride in our customer service excellence and well-maintained facilities, and we are disappointed that we fell short in your case.
Please know that we appreciate your feedback, and we are taking your comments seriously. We will immediately escalate your concerns to the centre manager, who will investigate the points you have raised and take appropriate action. We will also ensure that a deep clean of the areas mentioned is carried out as soon as possible.
Thank you again for your feedback and for giving us the opportunity to address your concerns. We hope to have the opportunity to serve you better in the future.
Sincerely,
Charmaine
