About Halo:

Halo is a registered charity and social enterprise running 22 sport and leisure centres throughout Herefordshire, Bridgend County Borough, Shropshire and Swindon on behalf of the local authorities. We often discuss our status as a social enterprise, but many of our customers are unsure of what it actually means and more importantly, how it benefits them. Being a social enterprise means Halo trades for social purposes. We are a registered charity and 'not for profit' organisation, with no shareholders.

The money we make is ploughed back into the facilities.

I started by joining the aqua aerobics following an accident. These sessions have proved to be very helpful in my rehabilitation and also very enjoyable. Taking out a membership helps cut the cost of these, whilst offering the opportunity to use a wide variety of gym equipment which I am working my way through. The staff are very friendly and approachable.

Very friendly staff always made to feel welcome. New equipment in the gym is great but could do with another treadmill as sometimes when it’s busy they are all in use. Other than that great pool and gym

I can only comment on the gym, which I use weekly. The new equipment is good and the member of staff there that I see most often (Ryan) is always very friendly, helpful & hard-working. I feel that fault and minor repair issue reporting does not seem to be as effective as it should be. H&S awareness and premises management needs a higher profile to ensure that standards are maintained; these are often low cost issues. Cleaning also seems to be a low priority matter.

We apologise for any inconvenience you may have experienced regarding fault and minor repair reporting. Our service and repairs contractors usually attend within 48 hours, however a recent issue with our climbers was initially intermittent, so there appeared to be no fault when i looked into it.

We understand that these aspects are crucial for maintaining high standards and we will make this a priority for improvement. Thank you once again for your valuable feedback. We hope to continue providing you with a pleasant gym experience. Best regards, Charlie

I enjoy using the gym at Bromyard Halo Centre. The staff are always welcoming and helpful. The gym is well laid out and there are more than enough pieces of equipment to work out on. It always looks clean and bright. Whenever anything needs replacing or repairing, it always appears to be done promptly.

Much new equipment in the gym has improved the experience. Cleaning and maintenance are evidently not a priority for management though.

I only go for the swimming, which I enjoy for exercise. It is becoming more difficult to find a quiet time due to the increasing demand for the facilities, as Ledbury's population is expanding with all the new housing developments.

Halo Ledbury is an excellent sports centre run by friendly staff. I used the pool, the sauna and the gym, and found them (and the changing facilities) excellent and always clean. The improvements that would have led to the 5th * are more proactive staff - staff were always very friendly but it was always up to me to initiate - and some more places / availability on fitness classes (I tried a couple of times to get on but with no luck). But these were very minor imperfections. It's a very good pool and gym.

I mainly use the gym. Have swum with family 2-3 times only. Pool is fine & would use if more interested in sw. Gym is fine for my needs. New equipment is hard work - disappointed there was no effort to explain how to get going on the new machines/ instructions on the options available, but generally don’t mind the absence of staff in the gym area in the daytime.

Friendly and helpful staff. Gym well equiped. Adam Davies does the best class in my opinion but he's been off quite a lot lately and the class was either cancelled at the very last minute or covered by someone else. Finally, it's very hard to find a parking space in busy hours.

Attached to a school, this centre has limited facilities, but this is reflected in the joining fee. There is a class most evenings and they cater for a range of fitness levels and offer something for everyone. There is a friendly atmosphere with welcoming instructors. If the floors were kept a little cleaner it would be 5 star.

I use the spin classes at the centre and the instructors Scott, Heather and Aaron are very good. The problem my wife and I have are the limited numbers per class as the bikes are very old and alot of them are not working correctly. There are six bikes out due to faults. I don't have alot of confidence in the equipment and worry it might failure. I think the equipment should be replaced so that the full class numbers can be achieved

Generally excellent, clean, helpful staff. However the decision to reduce the number of treadmills in the gym recently with the equipment change over seems crazy. These are by far the most popular pieces of equipment and on all my recent visits, people have been having to wait to try and get on one, myself included. This was never an issue before.
