I was doing work in the gym. But what I did see was a well equipped gym. There are alot of different machines to have a great workout. The machines go to quite a heavy level. There seemed like a nice crowd in and although it's not my type of gym. I would defenetly recommend it..... also the cardio machines looked decent. They were the sort with tvs built in.

I Always go here for a swim when I'm visiting Telford. It's less busy than most leisure centres during school holidays. Especially if you go early in the morning. The building is a bit dated but it's always clean and tidy Inside and round the pool area. The staff are always friendly and helpful.

Oakengates Leisure Centre is an excellent place and means of enjoying exercise.
There are excellent swimming facilities, the pool being first class to learn to swim. The classes available to learn to swim cater for all ages and levels of capability. Each class is run by a qualified instructor and the thing that really impressed was the fact that a lifeguard was continually patrolling the baths. The swimming lessons are usually 30 minutes duration. For parents bringing children to learn to swim there is a viewing gaiiery around two sides of the pool with seating with excellent views of the pool.
There is also a separate sports hall where badminton, basketball and netball are available at relevant times and days. The viewing gallery also is available for the sports hall.
There is available an exercise facility available under the name of Aspirations, with all of the exercise machines that make up a first class gym.
In the foyer there are coffee and soft drink machines.

It's a good. Straight forward, state funded facility however often components are broken, the pool is cold when they have had lane swimming in which makes fun and floats with children unworkable. The facility itself save for maintenance issues is otherwise tidy and practical. The staff are helpful but you the impression there is too much compromise.

Lovely friendly staff and very clean pool and changing. 20p lockers. Free hairdryers. Parking is free and swimming is cheap. Great kids swim lesson packs. Centre is looking a little worn but mainly in the seating area which is v small and seats are falling apart. Deffo recommend.

Could do with a bit more equiptment to aid people to improvise a little more due to it being a small space.

Could do with more of a staff presence too as staff do tend to hide in the reception area unless beckoned where they come up complete task ypu reuqested then retreat to the reception area again.

Get some more enthusiastic fitness conscious staff!

Otherwise machines itself are standard and classes are good.
