The official shortlist will be announced next month for the 4th annual Members’ Choice Health Club Awards sponsored by Physical Company & USN and in partnership with Health Club Management.

The awards aim to find out which clubs offer the best all-round customer experience based purely on ratings from members. This year, 400 clubs have entered and just over 35,000 votes were cast between 1 March and 16 June this year. A total of 150 clubs and leisure centres will make up the shortlist in regions around the UK.

“The reaction we’ve had from clubs taking part this year has been fantastic. Teams have really embraced the concept of the competition,” said managing director of the awards, Simon Brown.

“It’s a great opportunity to increase interaction between staff and customers and the feedback from members is both valuable and really motivating to the clubs involved”.

There are also national Grand Prix categories for best premium, mid-market and budget club, as well as small, medium and large chain categories.

The winners will be announced at the 4th annual Health Club Awards ceremony at LIW on Tuesday 30 September. The glittering black-tie event will be held at the National Motorcycle Museum and will include the now traditional after-party for guests.
