duty manager - The Triangle

When I had my son's party on 20/4/2013 at the triangle. The duty manager helped me when the details of the booking were not as I thought. He allowed the children to go on the flumes thus saving the day - thank you

John Doswell - The Dolphin

I've been with The Dolphin Leisure Centre for over 4 years now, and John has always helped me, every step of my journey. I recently had a review of my fitness regime and again, John has given me wonderful advice with my health conditions in mind. I have Fibromyalgia, Hyper-mobile joints and other health conditions that affect my abilities to exercise. John listened to my concerns and experiences and showed me exercises tailored to my conditions. He showed me every step of each exercise, and if something was too hard for me, he showed me how to change it up to make it more comfortable for me. That kind of one to one customer service is priceless for me as my conditions are long term, and I need the help now whilst I can exercise. I now feel really motivated to get back into the gym and I'm really going to enjoy these new exercises :-)

Mel Rooke - Withdean Sports Complex

A friendly, welcoming, motivating and encouraging instructor. Mel is always keen to gain knowledge of the new fitness techniques that are out there and often enough her classes are months ahead of the current trends. She always strives to get the most out of all her class participants no matter what fitness level or age they are. Mel is an excellent instructor and doesn't realise how good she is at her job, I have never been fitter!

Hayley Plummer - The Dolphin

Hayley has helped me enormously. I already achieved my first goal with her help (to climb the 3rd highest volcano in the world) & she is about to embark on assisting me with my next goal (to run a half marathon - I don't even run!). Hayley's real strength though is that she goes above & beyond, checking up on me through Fitness Pal, emails & texts. In addition, it s clear to me that Hayley loves her work & is energetic in keeping herself informed as to new ideas & current thinking (both with regard to exercise & nutrition). Moreover, Hayley accommodates my difficult working life by being as adaptable & flexible as possible. I cannot commend her enough.

Kathy Coleman - Hassocks Sports Centre

I would like to nominate Kathy and her team at the Hassocks sports centre. They always greet you by name and are always willing to go the extra mile to help. I've often seen Kathy in the gym coming up with different challenges and motivating everyone. She is a star! Kathy and the team create a really friendly atmosphere which is often lacking in other gyms so I'd like them to be recognised and rewarded for this.

Tracey - swimming teacher - The Dolphin

On 12th March it was snowing and all the schools in Haywards Heath were shut. I was so surprised to find out that Tracey was still doing her swimming lessons and was so impressed. My daughter Poppy and 2 other pupils managed to make it to the lesson which Tracy ran as always with her lovely way with the children. I would also like to thank all the other staff that made the Dolphin up and running that day - the reception staff were chirpy and the lone chef working in the kitchen who cooked and served our lunch. Thanks to all of you!

Alan Hanley - Woking Leisure Centre

Twice in the last 4 days, Alan took time out of his workday to accommodate my family's needs within the swim program. Even though he was probably busy with his job, I felt as if he wanted to help make things easier for me. Because he has always been helpful and respectful to me and others - I think he truly believes the families and individuals using the Woking leisure centre are important.
