About GLL

Established in 1993, GLL is a charitable social enterprise and workers cooperative. Over the past 30 years we’ve grown to become the UK’s largest leisure and cultural trust. Under our customer facing brand Better, we operate 240 leisure centres, 120 libraries, and 15 children’s centres in partnership with over 60 local councils, public agencies and sporting organisations. You’ll find us working in a multitude of diverse locations; from some of the UK’s most deprived communities to world-class sporting venues such as the Manchester Aquatics Centre, Crystal Palace National Sports Centre, Lee Valley VeloPark and the Copper Box Arena. We welcome over 57 million visitors a year, generating over £440m in social value as we strive to help as many people as possible lead healthier, happier and longer lives. In 2007 we launched the GLL Sports Foundation, which has grown into the largest independent athlete support programme in the country. It has provided 28,000 athlete awards across Olympic, Paralympic, Commonwealth, Deaflympic and Special Olympic sports at a total value of £15 million. We are committed to providing excellent working conditions and sector-leading career development to our staff. We are one of only 13,000 organisations in the UK to sign up to the Real Living Wage and are an Investors In People Gold accredited employer. We are proud to work together with national charities and Government departments including the British Red Cross, Diabetes UK, Age UK, The Mix and NHS England on initiatives to promote mental wellbeing and physical health.
