Burntwood Leisure Centre High Street, Chasetown, Burntwood WS7 3XH

"Glad to see that Freedom Leisure have been dropped. The swimming changing rooms, and the pool itself, were very unclean under Freedom Leisure. I stopped using the pool 18 months ago for this reason. Will now return after the April take over."

"EDIT **Initial review made in November 22. Update February 23. The local authority have taken over this leisure centre again & improvements are already being made. This is great news for this centre, it’s staff & community. ** This centre has regrettably been taken over by ‘freedom leisure’. The centre still has amazing, committed staff who try their best under freedom leisure’s ‘guidance’ to maintain some of the lovely ‘family feel’ that used to be…unfortunately Freedom seem to be purely a business - prices are constantly increasing, but there is a continued lack of attention to the building inside & out. The park used to be a hub for families with young children before & after swim lessons…photos show where Freedoms attention is - unfortunately not in the places where community used to thrive."

"Absolutely brilliant i brought my son's here in the middle 80's and it was the best thing now we are bringing our granddaughter and she loves it the teacher is on the ball very gently got our little one into the water at her own pace the same this week and we could see her little class encouraging our little one with kicking her legs and making it to the side they are a lovely group helping and encouraging and engaging with their Teacher who is relaxed and confident yes I would definitely recommend this place"

"My family and I went to the roller disco at the weekend, great fun in the hall. The only drawback was that it was cash only to get in. That and the gang of "youths" hanging about outside the building shouting and spitting, wasn't the most friendly to have to walk through on the way in and out."

"Play Racketball here 3 to 4 times a week. Dirty great big hole in the ceiling where the seated area is near Court 1, its been like that now for over 12 months with a dustbin/litter bin underneath to catch any moisture. Surely a health and trip hazard all in one!!! Now the courts themselves. Line markings almost non existent. Court surface is dusty and dirty. It's common to see blood on the walls, a point I have raised before. Paint rapidly peeling off the side walls. The Male changing rooms are regularly cleaned but the showers themselves are down to a "trickle" . As ever the saving grace for this place are the loyal, hard working staff. Well done"
