Glasgow Club criticised for lack of family membership options

Summarised from Glasgow Live's report · Updated 16 Oct, 10:50 · Archive

A Glasgow councillor has raised concerns about the absence of family membership options at the Glasgow Club.

Councillor Paul Carey BEM has raised concerns about the lack of family discount membership options at the Glasgow Club, which operates fitness facilities across Glasgow. He said he found it "astonishing" that no dedicated family membership covering gym and swimming facilities was available.

Under current pricing, the FitClub costs £32 monthly for adults aged 22 and over, and £21 for those aged 13–21. The ActivClub costs £21 monthly for adults. Councillor Carey calculated that a family with two adults and two teenagers would pay £106 monthly or £1,272 annually across individual memberships.

Ccouncillor Carey is asking Glasgow Life whether the Glasgow Club could introduce a family membership covering a set number of adults and children, or offer separate packages for swimming and for gyms with swimming and fitness classes. He said constituents wanted to exercise and use local leisure facilities but found individual membership costs prohibitive when added to other household expenses.
