Forty-three Aquaterra Leisure fitness staff were presented with certificates at prizegiving ceremonies in recognition of successfully passing Level 3 qualifications in personal training and exercise on referral.

The staff are now qualified to deliver two of Aquaterra's services: personal training for customers and the exercise on referral scheme, managed by Aquaterra Leisure in partnership with Bath & North East Somerset and Islington Primary Care Trusts and Councils.

Marc Jones, sales and fitness manager at Aquaterra Leisure said: "We're committed to the development and progression of our staff and to growing the number of staff who can deliver specially tailored exercise programmes for customers and residents. Forty-three staff passed the qualifications and their success is a just reward for their hard work."
