This is free for everyone who lives in Leeds and is SO easy to sign up to, you can do it on line on www.leedsletsgetactive.co.uk registration takes about 5 minutes, it will give you a registration code, take that along to the leisure centre you want to use and they’ll sort you out with a card and then you’re good to go!
If you want to use the gym you will have to do a gym induction but this too is free of charge at off-peak times… but the centre will get you set up and ready to go.
