Your Local Leisure Trust
By Emma Taylor
Achieve Lifestyle is your local charitable leisure trust, operating Egham Orbit and Achieve Power, Addlestone. What makes leisure trusts different in the way they operate local facilities is that they are not-for-profit and reinvest income back into the local community. Our focus is to improve the health and wellbeing of the local Runnymede community by providing inclusive, great quality services and work with local partners to reach out to the widest members of our communities.
Achieve Lifestyle offer a variety of both physical and social activities which are suitable for a range of local groups and individuals. Some examples include; our Get Active scheme with group classes aimed at those recovering from injury or with a reduced range of movement such as Chair Aerobics, walking sports, school swimming lessons and Healthy Living Badminton.
Various local clubs and community groups also operate from our facilities, such as Egham Constellations who run an accessible swim session led by volunteers. Concession membership discounts are also available for juniors, seniors, disability, emergency services and the NHS. Achieve Lifestyle have also recently started a partnership with the Ashford and St. Peter’s NHS Foundation Trust at Egham Orbit.
