Overview
The Bankside Health Club is a part of a small boutique style chain of independent health and fitness clubs, based in and around the City, owned by a Company called ‘The Playgate Group’.
Each of the clubs is managed as an independent facility to ensure they grow and develop to best suit the members that they serve.
The Bankside Health Club is the newest in the group and opened in March 2008. It quickly became recognised as one of the most prestigious Health & Fitness facilities, situated within the iconic Blue Fin Building located on Southwark Street.
At The Bankside Health Club the inspirational energetic team have created a unique Health & Fitness environment that makes working out, fun & supportive, ensuring both a memorable & beneficial exercise journey.
The Playgate Group have been operating for over 20 years, however, the combined expertise of its management stretches back farther still. The Group’s first club was Market Sports which originally opened in 1991 in the Old Spitalfields fruit market and has now relocated to the heart of trendy Shoreditch. The second Club in the Group was Slim Jims, which is situated on Broadgate Circus near Liverpool Street Station. Slim Jims was acquired by The Playgate Group in 2005 but is actually the longest operating Club in the City having been established over 40 years. The third Club in the Group was The CityPoint Club which was acquired from Champneys in March 2006. As well as being a premium Health Club it is also a destinational spa and was awarded 5 Bubble status in 2009 by The Good Spa Guide.
Although each Club is very different, one thing they all share is that they separate themselves from the mainstream by offering a friendly and approachable service that prides itself on customer experience. They believe in offering the customers the support and services they need to help them achieve their goals.
