Images: The sites have been rebranded by Nuffield Health

Nuffield Health has announced the official launch of 15 new fitness and wellbeing centres across the UK, which have been unveiled at former Greens gyms acquired earlier this year.

The sites - bought from De Vere Group - will help Nuffield Health increase its presence in England and Scotland and the number of facilities it operates in metropolitan areas.

Among the locations of the centres are Stoke, Edinburgh, Birmingham and two in Glasgow. Each are designed to provide a "joined-up approach" to managing health and fitness.

Every member will be able to benefit from a comprehensive Health MOT to provide a clear overview of an individual's health status and to offer a bespoke plan to remain healthy.

The new openings take Nuffield Health - one of the UK's largest healthcare charities - to 65 clubs open to the public and nearly 200,000 members.

Nuffield Health managing director, consumer wellbeing Laura Kerby said: "We are closer to achieving Nuffield Health's strategic ambition of a national network of fitness and wellbeing facilities, supporting more members to get fitter and healthier.

"We have introduced many fantastic benefits for our members at these centres, including the Nuffield Health MOT and Meet our Expert events and we have had great feedback about the changes we have made."
