Problems with Swimming Lessons
My son attended swimming lessons here and was moved up a group. He was super excited but was then told there was a mistake and moved him back down. A few months later same thing again. This was humiliating and demoralising for an 8 year old! I have moved him to Woolwich Waves where they seem better organised. I emailed the manager at Thamesmere who said he would speak with the teacher and get back to me but he never did. The changing room cubicals at Thamesmere are always full of peoples' belongings too. Also the parents' viewing area only faces the big pool so if your child is in the small pool you have to sit right at the end of the bleachers and twist awkwardly. They have a huge slide that looks great but they never let the kids use. Not impressed.

Hi David,
Thank you for your review!
We're deeply sorry to hear about the issues you experienced at our centres and the inconsistencies with your little one's swimming stage.
We will be sharing this with the relevant team for further review on where we went wrong, as well as your comments about the cleanliness of our hanging room facilities, and the issues with viewing the small pool area.
Thank you again for your feedback!
Warm Regards,

Disappointed
I dislike that the water is cold instead of warm as they told my mom .
No real instructor, just a lady not even inside the water and telling u what to do, meaning if the adult u came in with doesn't know how to swim, you cannot learn.
I had to give just two star as I like to learn how to swim even though I don't enjoy the water temperature as I am allergic to cold.

Hi Obianuju,
Thank you for your review!
We're sorry to hear that you're experiencing issues with the water temperature at our centre.
We're more than happy to raise this with the team to see if there are any known issues.
Regarding your swim instructor, our Foundation classes are structured differently from Swimbies sessions, so the instructor may not always be in the water during the lesson.
If you are looking for a more personalised learning experience outside of a group setting, you may also wish to consider 1-2-1 swimming lessons.
We'ee happy to hear that you're enjoying your swimming lessons despite the concerns you've raised.
Thank you again for your feedback!
Warm Regards,
Kaisha
Toilets are no smelling nice
I was a banker before I retired so whenever a new person joined our bank they were crossed trained , to get the whole picture.Facilitues are ok except outside bins are not emptied and lots of littering around the front of your buildings causing an eyesore,and there by reflecting on your Gym.

It’s good to hear you feel the facilities are generally acceptable.
However, we’re sorry to hear about the issues you’ve noticed outside the building regarding bins and litter. We understand how this can affect the overall impression of the site, and we will make sure your comments are passed on to the relevant team so it can be looked into and addressed.
We appreciate you taking the time to highlight this.

A well run centre
I've seen some reviews here that are a little over critical. People need to visit some other centres before commenting. I mainly use the swimming facilities and from chatting to other swimmers have found people traveling past other leisure centres that would be convenient for them. The pool staff have other duties in addition to life guarding and I've always found them to be friendly and helpful. The tutors there are thoroughly professional, you can visibly see the children improving with each week. On the whole a very well run centre and long may it continue. Whilst writing I'd like to single out Damallie. Had she not been there to steer me through membership etc. I would probably have given up as soon as I'd started. Thank you Dama.

What’s important for people to know? This company is organized, responsive, and easy to work with. Communication is clear throughout the entire process, so you’re never left wondering what’s happening
What made my experience great was how smooth and stress-free everything felt from beginning to end. The process was clearly explained, and I always knew what the next steps were. That kind of transparency really builds trust.
The company does a great job with communication - responses were quick, clear, and professional. I also appreciated how friendly and respectful the team was.
They didn't rush me and took the time to answer my questions thoroughly

Improvements
What i dont like about Better gym Thamesmere is that they are very slow to act on complaints. The swimming pool water temperature is always cold. The equipments used for Barre feet are faulty and been so for a long time. Better gym Thamesmere need to do better. You can't keep increasing membership fees every year with faulty equipments and dirty toilets/door windows.

Hi there,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience at our Thamesmead site. We’re really pleased to hear that you’ve found our team welcoming, especially Lawrence — we’ll make sure to pass on your kind words to him.
We’re genuinely sorry to hear about the issues you've had with the shower and pool temperatures. We completely understand how frustrating and uncomfortable that must have been, especially when you're attending regularly as part of the Healthwise programme. It’s important to us that all our facilities support your health and fitness goals in a safe and comfortable environment.
Your feedback has been passed to the management and maintenance teams for urgent review. While our team on site may not directly control the temperature systems, we are investigating the inconsistencies to ensure this doesn’t continue. Reliable water temperature is essential — you should never feel discouraged from using the facilities you're paying for.
We’d also like to apologise if the response you received on the day didn’t feel supportive. That’s not the level of service we aim to provide, and we will look into that too.
Thank you again for your feedback — it helps us improve.
Warm regards,
Charmaine
