Situated inside the school, it has a swimming pool with flumes, gym, and many different classes, from Salsa to Trampolining. They run many activities for children, and have a full school holiday programme.They also have a cage which sells reasonably priced drinks and snacks. The pool can get a little busy, especially at weekends, and changing room space can be a problem, also, the pool isnt great for swimming lengths, as its a funny shape.

A review of a council run leisure centre should probably really focus on what the place sets out to…read moreachieve. I would guess that it aims to provide a place for the public to fulfil their leisure requirements, with decent equipment available, a good selection of classes, served by good staff and all reasonably priced. With the above in mind I can not fault Carlton Forum. I moved to the gym in here from a more expensive National Chain, for the simple reason that I needed to save a few quid where possible. Having ditched my £65 per month subs at the previous gym I am now paying £31 per month at Carlton Forum. So what have I lost for the £34 per month I now get to keep in my pocket??? Well the luxury definitely, the nice plush sofas, a receptionist with a perfect smile and model looks etc etc. But in terms of the need it intends to fulfil - that of keeping fit - absolutely nothing! Carlton Forum provides access to all the equipment I need to carry out my regimes exactly as before and the atmosphere is less pretentious than the previous place, giving a more communal and relaxed feeling when you finally pluck up the courage to visit the gym. Obviously there are a wide range of things on offer beyond that of just the gym. Swimming, tennis, football, badminton, exercise classes, spinning classes, squash etc etc. So there really should be something for everyone.
