Green Bank Leisure Centre

Pool is great and staff are friendly, and these are the only positives I could find.
But:
- the car park is quite small and it can get busy, so you can find yourself not having where to park or parking in the council spaces if it's late evening or weekend;
- there are only 3 showers in the women's changing area and the surface around them up to the pool is incredibly slippery;
- changing rooms are freezing and not well lit;
- not all toilets in the pool area work and those working don't have a lock on the door. Also there's a strong smell of urine as soon as you walk in the changing area;
- vending machines quite often swallow your coins without giving anything back.

The price is not brilliant for the amount of time allocated. We as a family of 5 paid £15 for 45mins. Water is tepid. No longer value for money, card payments only which is not the best idea, it was only due to someone else commenting on fb about it being card only otherwise I wouldn't have know as I only had cash available.

When I go down to take my so Swimming they are always fully booked, so they say call up next time before but you call and nobody answers the phoned what are you supposed to do

Good community leisure centre, good for a range of people. Decent variety of classes from Les mills, spin, aqua, yoga. Like the boxes used in the sports hall for social distancing, they’re great for space during classes. Hall, climbing wall and parts of the gym all feel new and recently refurbed which is nice. Gym can get super busy and is quite cramped but the same at every gym. Pool is okay, could do with a freshen up as parts look a bit old. My average rating is the changing rooms, they’re really not good, feel old. Dry changing feels old and dirty, but the wet side is even worse. Not enough cubicles, waiting 5/10 mins whilst wet isn’t great, some don’t have locks, most don’t have light, all feel gross. Lockers are okay but many have broken wristbands. Only 3 showers which isn’t enough after a 40 person class. The last few weeks, 2 of the showers have been broken so really not good. I think the next refurb (not an easy job I know) needs to be concentrated here, it’s not nice leaving the gym/pool feeling dirty after a shower. Also, staff are nice enough but I get the impression they need a little more training/info as quite often I’ll have to speak to 3/4 people before finding someone with the answer. Not their fault at all, just comes across a bit disjointed as a new starter.

Swimming with my baby boy. I have never felt more comfortable in a place to go swimming and the water is great, lifeguards, reception and generally all staff are always lovely. I'm happy to call this place my first choice in the area even if I drive a while to get there.

Friendly,helpful staff.....
I only use the pool for a casual swim as I find the lane swim a bit imposing(people in front and behid)
Would be helpful to have a couple of lanes for a casual swim at these times....but thats a personal thing!

Good local centre for swimming and gym. Small pool for the kids and sauna for when you want to relax afterwards

Main facilities are decent but the male changing rooms are just dirty. There’s marks and fluids all up the walls and doors of the changing rooms that rarely if ever get cleaned. The locks on the doors are mostly broken or not present and the lights are often broken.
