Bannatyne Fitness CEO Justin Musgrove commented, “The Weybridge Health Club and Spa represents a strategic purchase for the group as we extend our portfolio into the Home Counties. It is just the sort of business where we believe we can add value and enhance the customer experience with investment and attention to operational detail.”
