Leisure centres in Cornwall are giving away free gym passes to mark Social Enterprise Day.

James Curry, head of service for GLL in , said: “The open weekend is a wonderful opportunity to visit your local leisure centre for free and discover what’s on offer.
“As a social enterprise, we are a community service that promotes and delivers the many benefits of being more active. Healthy bodies and healthy minds are synonymous so we cater for all ages – from the very young to older, more mature people who may be living with long-term health conditions. The importance of learning to swim in a county like ours cannot be underestimated and that’s why we’ll be providing free swim school tasters for adults and children throughout the weekend.
“Almost all our centres have just been refurbished with brand new equipment, vibrant colour schemes and a much-improved look and feel. Fitness shouldn’t be left until January – especially when it can be kickstarted in November for free.” For more information and booking, or visit https://www.
