Calling All NHS Workers!
Did you know that if you are an NHS employee, working for the Epsom & St Helier NHS Trust, you are entitled to a discounted membership rate here at Sutton Sports Village and Rainbow Leisure Centre in Epsom?
As a charitable, not-for-profit social enterprise, our aim is to deliver a better quality of fitness and leisure, libraries and performing arts facilities for everyone, including NHS workers. We are committed to providing access to great community facilities at an affordable price.
The Better Health Community Network Membership gives access to your choice of local Better leisure centres - Sutton Sports Village or Rainbow Leisure Centre.
Sutton Sports Village
At Sutton Sports Village, in Sutton, we offer a range of facilities and activities designed to cater to all ages and abilities. Located just a 15-minute walk from St Helier Hospital and a short walk from Sutton Common train station, the centre boasts an array of top-class health and fitness facilities including a state-of-the-art gym with the latest Technogym equipment plus dedicated cardio, strength, resistance and functional training zones.
We offer a variety of fitness classes across two fitness studios as well as a dedicated Group Cycle studio.
Historically we have been a dedicated tennis centre and therefore offer a range of tennis lessons for adults and children across our six indoor tennis courts, four outdoor clay courts plus four indoor dome clay courts.
We also offer a dedicated gymnastics hall, two dance studios and an outdoor astro football pitch which is available for hire.
We are well known locally as the home of Sutton's first and only Trampoline and Soft Play Park - perfect for all the family to bounce, crawl and burn off some energy and the perfect place to hold a children's birthday party!
Sutton Sports Village is also home to Sutton Day Nursery for children aged 6 months and 5 years. A fun and friendly nursery which also gives the children access during their day, to the various activities within our centre too such as outdoor sports and the play park.
There is free on-site car parking too so if you are looking to start healthy habits, pop in for a free tour of the centre and see all we have to offer.

Who we are
Established in 1993, GLL is the largest UK-based charitable social enterprise delivering leisure, health and community services. Under the consumer facing brand Better, we operate 258 public Sports and Leisure facilities, 88 libraries, 10 children’s centres and 5 adventure playgrounds in partnership with 50 local councils, public agencies and sporting organisations. Better leisure facilities enjoy 46 million visitors a year and have more than 650,000 members.
Better exists to make community services and spaces better for everyone. In practice, that means investing all surpluses back into providing quality leisure, health and library facilities for the good of the communities where we operate.
Alongside our core leisure and library divisions, we run sport and legacy development, health intervention and education, as well as offering the GLL Sports Foundation, one of the largest independent support programmes for talented young athletes in the UK.
We are always looking at ways in which to improve the services and facilities we offer and ways in which we can contribute positively to the local community. This includes helping to support NHS workers with discounted nursery fees and reduced membership prices.
Please note that registration for the NHS membership will require providing proof of eligibility. The member will need to upload proof of their NHS employment to their online account once registered.
