Re Chairman's Spring Newsletter

Dear [[firstname]]

I hope you are well and I also trust you are continuing to enjoy using the club.

Over the past few months the club has seen an increase in both membership and usage across all activities. This is a result of hardwork from the staff, the committee, club coaches, volunteers and our existing members, so can I please thank you to everyone for your support. As always, all feedback is welcome, as it’s key to understand how we can strive to improve your club.

Starting this week, Bryn will be reducing his hours and working from Monday to Thursday. On Fridays Rachel Truman will be your point of contact. Their overall roles and responsibilities remain unchanged, so you should expect the same level of service from our staff going forward.

Finally I am hopeful that we will start to see a more productive kitchen and, if things do go as planned, you will start to see more fresh produce.

Yours Sincerely,

David Goodridge

Chairman of Grantham Squash and Fitness Club
