Anglian Leisure Sawston has played a huge role in my wellbeing. After losing my health in a near-fatal car crash, my road to recovery was long and challenging, I didn’t exercise for many years. Joining the ‘Exercise for Fun’ programme gave me a safe, friendly and supportive environment in which to rebuild my confidence and rediscover my love of exercise, thanks especially to the incredibly welcoming and positive encouragement of Fleur Harrower. I soon became a regular at the gym and benefited enormously from the expertise of personal trainer Josh Rivero White, who helped me create a bespoke exercise plan tailored to my individual needs. Today, I genuinely enjoy exercising and lead a healthy, balanced lifestyle, something I owe to Anglian Leisure Sawston and the dedicated professionals who work there.

I am aged 66, and severely sight impaired. I’ve been attending the Sports Centre for weekly fitness sessions for four years, and weekly pilates sessions for around two decades. It has been important for me to keep fit and healthy, which was becoming more difficult as my vision deteriorated over the years. But thanks to the guidance and help of the staff, the gym has become accessible and manageable despite my lack of sight – simple things such as having the dials and programmes set up for me, guidance to ensure I don’t accidentally walk into another gym user, has made me feel at ease with the environment.
The Sports Centre is very handy for the village. I am a 15 minute walk away on good footpaths, a familiar route.
In summary, I know that my heart health, my overall fitness, and my general well-being have all improved by my being able to attend the Sports Centre regularly. I plan to continue for many years to come, for continued good health into my dotage!
