Has GLL met the commitments they made when taking over our leisure centres?

Friday, 28th July 2017

• GLL won the contract to run leisure centres in Islington and the recent proposal to build a trampoline park at the Sobell Centre has meant close scrutiny of the contract.

I would question the fairness of the venture if it puts the affordability of such an activity outside many local people’s means.

Also, the contract states: “The bidders have all addressed the Fairness Commission recommendations with commitments to pay London Living Wage to all staff as well as offering a range of training and apprentice positions, including commitments to local employment.”

I would like to see evidence that GLL has met this part of the contract.
