Sandwell Leisure Trust are ‘taking the bus’ to promote the large variety of services available to local people.

Over £2 million pounds was invested into facilities in 2007, including modern changing rooms for Wednesbury Leisure Centre and Smethwick Swimming Centre, a new expanded SynerGym Fitness facility and an interactive i-gym facility at Haden Hill Leisure Centre.

The Trust is now promoting its services on the back of single-decker buses in Sandwell over the next 12 months.

Dawn Mallett, Marketing and Communications Officer, said: "There have been many changes across our centres over the last four years since we became a Trust.

"Eight of our leisure centres are now Quest accredited and we have been awarded RoSPA Gold for Health & Safety for the last two years. We have also been awarded environmental awards for our contribution to reducing our carbon footprint.

She added: "We offer a variety of activities from fitness classes, gyms, swimming to racquet sports, holiday camps and outreach activities".
