GLL has been handed £200,000 to help it through the pandemic by Swindon Borough Council. The leisure operator – which runs six centres in the town but called time on the Oasis in November – may yet receive more funds from central government. The figures have been revealed in a report being presented to the council s resources and corporate overview and scrutiny committee on Monday. It will meet to discuss the lease arrangements the local authority has with GLL and the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic and lockdowns on leisure provision in the borough. The report says: “To date, additional support of £200,000 has been provided to GLL based on the losses it has experienced for April 1 2020 to June 30 2020 reflecting the significant losses it experienced due to the first lockdown.

Private customer and staff data has been found in bins outside the Oasis Leisure Centre. GLL staff have been clearing out the site since it announced it would not be reopening after the second national coronavirus lockdown last November. But now a member of the Save The Oasis campaign group says they found un-shredded documents in some of the bins at the site. Data included customer names, emails and payment schedules for the Oasis as well as other GLL operated sites in Swindon such as the Health Hydro and Link Centre. It also included staff names, rotas and diaries from when the site was open.
