In the interest of everyone’s cleanliness and hygiene, please wipe down equipment after use.
   

• If you’re using a smartphone, tablet or other device in the club or as part of your workout, it’s your responsibility to keep it safe and secure; we encourage you to keep it on you rather than on the equipment.

• Smoking, including e-cigarettes, is strictly prohibited in all areas.
   

• As much as you’d like to, you can’t live in the club so please be ready to leave by closing time.
   

• Appropriate behaviour is required at all times so as not to jeopardise your safety or the safety of others. If, in our reasonable opinion, a member’s continued membership is likely to be injurious to the character and interests NB Leisure Trust, we reserve the right to terminate that membership.
   

• We consider our members and staff one big, happy, healthy family so please respect the club, our staff and each other at all times.
   

• Finally, if you need to leave us, we will be sad to see you go. Please speak to any of us to see if we can help in any way. However, if you really do have to go following your minimum commitment period, please give us 30 days written notice.
