Went swimming with family. Waited quite a while to pay but could not see a reason why. Then waited a while to be buzzed through. Got asked for my name to put on the computer. Why? I am not a member so why would they need my name? Floor in the changing room is a bit slippy when wet so be careful. There are quite a few lockers that are broken and need to be fixed and a couple of the changing room doors don't lock. One of the baby changing tables has no straps which is not good, and when this was pointed out it was put out of action for a short time then put back in service....... With no straps........ Clever. Also the training/baby pool should be a certain temperature but is constantly a little cooler than it should be. The only reason I go is because there is no other choice that is central.
I lived here for some time and I took my son at Leisure Center Daventry for children activities. It a very good place for children all ages you pay 3 for one hour thirty minutes.
I Enjoy the Daventrt disabled swim clubs there on Thursday's 9-10.30
A sports hall should have a temperature of 12-16'C. It should feel cool. The sports hall at Daventry Leisure Centre I would say has a minimum temp of about 24C!!! They are totally clueless when it comes to this.When I spoke to the "duty manager" he said there was NO heating in the sports hall and therefore couldn't be turned off.. Now either he is a liar or and idiot. You can see the space heaters dangling down from the ceiling for goodness sake. The place is a more a mums and tots leisure club rather than a serious sports facility.
Update: I am leaving the post below in place as the story is important. But I wanted to add that the manager of the leisure centre did contact us twice to apologise and was taking action with the team so they handle this kind of situation better in the future. He was great and hope he is successful.Apparently it is not possible to do a zero star review, so reluctantly had to click on the first star. My wife took my daughter and son to the Wicked Wednesday Inflatable session this week, but what a terrible experience. My son who has some learning difficulties fell off the inflatable half way through and called for help, which meant he wasn't allowed back on, even when my wife offered to go alongside him. The treatment of the prepubescent 'life guards, even if they were following strict rules was insulting, smirking and laughing despite our son being in floods of tears and is still distressed hours later. He says he never wants to go back there ever again, heartbreaking. I am writing this review to raise awareness as I will be doing with everyone I can; don't expect you or your children (special needs or not) to be treated with respect at Daventry Leisure Centre.I will be cancelling my and my wife membership as soon as I can. We were also planning on having my son's next birthday there but of course he now doesn't want to go "even for his birthday".
