About Renfrewshire Leisure
Providing Sport and Leisure Opportunities for the Community

“Renfrewshire Leisure Trust will work for the benefit of the community of Renfrewshire by ensuring that there is sufficient provision of quality sports facilities for wet and dry sport in the area and positively encourage the community to participate in sport, leisure and recreational activities irrespective of social circumstance.”

History:
The transfer of Renfrewshire Councils indoor sports centres and swimming pools in January 2003 through the creation of Renfrewshire Leisure was the direct result of an earlier strategic study on sports provision in the local area.

The transfer allowed the Council to meet local needs by freeing up significant resources to invest in the building fabric of its existing stock of leisure centres to improve the standard of facilities on offer to the community.


Renfrewshire Leisure Ltd’s key objectives are:
a. Meeting the Specification of Service as agreed with Renfrewshire Council.

b. To make best use of resources available to improve the quality of our facilities.

c. To provide high quality leisure facilities and a balanced programme which give value for money and cater for all community groups to ensure no social exclusion.

d. To continuously increase usage by producing and developing projects and initiatives which will enhance the service and benefit the health of the community.

e. To work in partnership with other public, private and voluntary organisations to ensure the best service provision and financial return is achieved.

f. To maximise the potential to secure additional funding in support of the charitable aims of the IPS.

g. To ensure that service aims meet the Council’s corporate objectives in the delivery of leisure services.

h. To monitor the service to ensure that statutory obligations are met.

i. To search for more efficient methods of delivering the leisure services and modernising them.
