The only downside is the lack of a swimming pool. This centre is likely to close down soon once the new one on second avenue opens and takes over. It is very child friendly too and there are loads of activities for kids such as trampoling etc.

The exercise studio is a disgrace. Flooding damaged the ceiling and the floor, classes were cancelled so they could repair the floor but they didn't and when they cancelled them for a second time they only replaced parts of the floor and left large damaged areas unrepaired. Cheap and cheerful but don't expect anyone to return your calls or answer emails and staff are generally kept in the dark so unable to help much. The booking app is abysmal, regularly doesn't work, was supposedly updated and now doesn't work again. You can't book by phone as they don't answer. Booking via the website is ok if you know what class you want to book, if it then it's a nightmare.

It did get a bit annoying in January when the post Christmas 'new year new you' crowd were in, but thankfully it's returned to normal now. I haven't used the swimming pool or attended any classes here (I've tried to book on to some classes but they always seem to be full!), but I've heard good things.

The Rainbow Centre is the council run leisure centre in Epsom. You can either attend and pay as you attend or become a member which reduces your entry fee and allows you to book courts. There's a 25 metre pool with some hot tubs in the swimming area. A large sports hall has different activities at different times but I usually play badminton though you can join things like a 5 a side league. There's a well equipped gym upstairs. All available for a fraction of the price of one of the posh chains. Another cool thing is that they offer discounts to hospital staff. If all you need is a sports facility, the Rainbow Centre will meet your needs

I love to swim and I love going to Highbury Pool and Fitness Centre. When you are walking to the…read morecentre there are so many trees and overgrowth it feels like you are trying to find shelter in a jungle. As you walk along the path you can barely see the building and then the entrance pops almost out of nowhere. The centre offers more than a pool, there is also a fitness centre. This is a full service facility and if you don't belong to a gym it's not a bad place to join. I go the Highbury Pool strictly to swim. They do have adult lap times if you want to avoid screaming kids. They also have water aerobics which is great for people with knee problems. Since I only use the pool a few times a month for swimming I pay the standard £3.70 fee. If I lived a bit closer I would problem go ahead and join, especially since a month membership with pool access is about £42.

Providing excellent facilities to the local community, this leisure centre can boast an excellent running track, five-a-side football and hockey courts, tennis, badminton, a 25m swimming pool, first-class gym, spa facilities and various fitness training programme. I started going here twice-weekly some years ago as part of a misguided attempt to bring myself back to a level approaching fitness. Predominantly I used the gym and swimming pool facilities but my membership also gave me access to the spa. You're unlikely to find better value for money anywhere else in London. Even without a membership it's fairly inexpensive - a swim costs around £2.50. They also organise weekly or bi-weekly swimming sessions for women only or baby and mother groups. If you live around this area this is a brilliant place to come and relax or keep up with a bit of fitness.

Massive bonus for ladies is that there is a Ladies only gym. This is to allow for the larg muslim population in the area. There is hardly ever anyone in there so it's great.
