There’s something for everyone at Drumbrae now, no matter what age or stage. And just to prove that point Triple Olympian swimmer and Rio Silver medallist Robbie Renwick and 79 year old fitness instructor Helen Flannigan, helped to relaunch the Leisure Centre which officially reopens to the public on Monday.

Helen led a Pound workout, which fuses cardio interval training with drumming, and is new to Edinburgh Leisure and one of the few places you can experience the class in the city, while swimmer Robbie conducted a Masters Class for intermediate members looking to improve their front crawl.

Also on hand to ensure the day went without a hitch were General Manager, Emily Neil at Drumbrae Leisure Centre and Head of Customer Operations, Lindsay Renwick (who’s Robbie’s uncle!).
