Holbrook Club Update – 19th July 2021
Firstly, as always, we hope you, your family and friends are keeping safe and well.
We would generally start off with details regarding changes happening or updates around the club (further details of these are listed below). This time however, we felt it more important to start off with a Thank You.
The last few months have been a struggle for so many, circumstances have resulted in changes for everyone not just in the leisure industry. We have seen a huge reduction in staff numbers, member numbers and facilities we have been able to offer. We have needed to adapt to these changes and whilst this has been challenging it has also been rewarding. So many of you have expressed your thanks to us however we feel the thanks should be given to you. Your continued support and patience during these times has been amazing and we cannot thank you enough. Whether you have supported us by continuing with your membership fees during lockdown, donated to our Just Giving page or offered words of comfort during such delicate times we are so grateful.
The team are looking forward to welcoming you all back as the club opens up even further. Any feedback you would like to give us would be greatly appreciated – if you feel we need to make further considerations or feel we need to address certain issues please do let us know.
With the kindest of regards
The Holbrook Club Team

Detailed below are the official updates to keep you safe and supported during your visits to The Holbrook Club.
Now that the social distancing restrictions have been lifted we wanted to update you on what your visit to The Holbrook Club will look like going forward. We believe we still have a duty of care to our members, visitors and staff which means we will be continuing with a few safety measures for the next few weeks and details of these are as follows:-
1. Staff will continue to wear face coverings when walking through the building and serving you face to face.
2. Members and visitors are no longer legally required to wear face coverings however for a little while longer we would ask that you consider wearing one when walking through the buildings and speaking directly to a member of staff.
3. We will be continuing with the provision of hand sanitiser, sanitation spray and blue roll in all areas.
4. it is no longer a legal requirement to ‘check-in’ using the NHS Track and Trace QR code but these will remain on display for now should you wish to use them
5. Distancing tape has been removed throughout the premises
6. There is no longer any restriction on the numbers for you party
