The RiversMeet Team would like to personally thank ASDA once again for helping RiversMeet. Having a local provision such as Asda that understands us as a charity is heart-warming.

Fantastic experience: Great place for all ages, and many diferent sports to choose from. I really don't mind taking my shoes of to go in to a swiming changing room, but don't like that others don't follow same rules. Many times there is a lack of shoes nets available expecially Saturdays, probably busiest day in the pool. Please send an email to all parents on swiming school reminding of the important of having clean floors in a wet changing rooms, I know staff only use shoes inside the building however I believe in leading by example, and if there meets available staff should coment to people withouy them on.

Fantastic experience: I have recently, last August, moved to the area from Worthing, West Sussex and since joining the centre I have definitely got fitter and I think this is all down to the group fit classes with Lyndsay, she motivates everyone but at the same time does not over stretch you. I would recommend these classes if you want to get fit but you have to put some effort into it yourself. Thank you Lyndsay.

Fantastic experience: Riversmeet is a very well run leisure facility. I became a member just after the centre opened. It has friendly helpful staff who create a warm, welcoming environment. I mainly use the gym but also attend a very good Pilates class. I'm 75 and the well balanced range of equipment in the gym, allows me to stay pretty fit. To add to an already excellent venue a new coffee shop has opened in the foyer. This offers good coffee and a wide range of cakes and other snacks. In my opinion RiversMeet offers a bonus, not only for Gillingham residents but also the surrounding villages.

Fantastic experience: New membership very good indeed! Last year £36 per month membership and £5 each class. My membership this year is £48 per month with all classes included. I do spinning twice a week and pump and tone once a week that was £60 pounds a mouth last year. Now only £48 per month with gym and free classes good deal to keep me fit. Thanks Riversmeet
Fantastic experience: Compassionate staff, clearly trained in disability awareness. I regularly visit with my son (Autism & Severe Learning Difficulties), where staff could not be more helpful. Tip: best to swim in the final hour as families have usually left, there are fewer lane-swimmers, staff - relaxed.
