A Norfolk leisure club, at Park Farm hotel Hethersett, has celebrated its 21st birthday with the official opening of a new extension.

The club, run by Fitness Express, features a new spa pool, refurbished swimming pool and a carbon neutral biomass boiler system, which heats the hotel as well as club facilities.

The official opening ceremony took place on 15 December at the Park Farm hotel, nestled in 200 acres of countryside seven miles from Norwich's city centre, where the club has around 1,000 members.

Fitness Express was founded 26 years ago by Steve Taylor and Dave Courteen and largely provides gyms for hotels, commercial premises and student accommodation.

The Norwich-based company employs 400 staff at 30 clubs and 14 spa facilities across the UK, including London, Manchester, Newcastle and Southampton.
