A first look inside a new gym and health centre shows the high-end facilities and perks on offer at the £174-per-month club - as members insist it’s worth the money.

After 18 months of development, the David Lloyd in Herne Bay welcomed members for the first time on Friday, ahead of its official opening on December 2.

Members and dignitaries were welcomed with Champagne and hors d’oeuvres before the ceremonial ribbon-cutting by Canterbury’s Lord Mayor, Keji Moses, and a tour of the vast facilities.

The site at Altira Park features a state-of-the-art gym, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, padel and tennis courts and a mini football pitch.
