THE CLUB

Harrogate Sports & Fitness Centre is a Members’ club and profits generated are reinvested into the club for continual development and improvement. Success for us means creating a fantastic facility for all the community to enjoy and benefit from, enabling members and guests to be active and enjoy sports and social activities. We receive no operational support and therefore all of our running costs and staff wages are funded through the services we provide.
