[Also sent by email to members]

 

As we wrap up another year, we have a busy December ahead from festive celebrations to welcoming new business partner Cadbury Physiotherapy so there is plenty to look forward to as we finish 2025 strong.

 

Festive Season - What's On!

 

Bookings are open and events are filling up - there is plenty to look forward to for all ages so have a peek and see what's happening at the Club this December.  At time of sending, our Tina Turner Tribute night is fully booked in the Restaurant but music-only spaces are still available. Advance booking of all our events is always recommended to secure your space!

 

Centenary Collection - on sale early December!

 

Our new "centenary collection" is on the way to our Club Shop.  From plush towels and premium tote bags to a fresh clothing range, each piece has been designed to feel special as we celebrate 100 years together and we cannot wait for you to see it.  Even better, the centenary collection will land in the shop in early December just in time for Christmas and the start of our centenary year!

 

Christmas Guest Passes are back!

 

Our popular, complimentary, festive guest passes return this year and will be ready to collect at Reception from Monday 15th December. There are four passes for every adult member, to share with friends and family, valid from Monday 22nd December 2025 to Friday 2nd January 2026 inclusive. Guests must be accompanied by a member aged 18+.

 

Gym Reminder

 

A polite reminder to keep our gym floor safe and clutter-free by storing coats, bags, and personal belongings in a changing room locker rather than bringing them to the Gym.  Thank you for helping us maintain a clean and safe workout environment for everyone.

 

Charity Spinathon next Wednesday - still time to join in!

 

Get ready to spin for a great cause, no experience is needed — our annual 12-hour Charity Spinathon returns on Wednesday 3rd December. This fantastic event is in its fourth year led by impressive instructors Cat and Clare, and sponsored by Colten Care.

 

Please support this fundraising event filled with music, fitness, and community spirit, all for Dorset Mind whose local work makes such a difference. Spaces fill up fast, so book your place at Reception now and be part of this incredible day! Click here for more details or speak to our wonderful Reception Team!

 

Thank you

 

As always, thank you for your continued support. Please remember, if you have any feedback to share, please complete a form at Reception or click here to email us.

 

From myself and my team, we wish you a joyful and active build up to Christmas and a happy new year.

 

Best wishes,

 

Peter D Elviss

Chief Executive
