No More MayBes Bracknell winner unveiled

A seven-year-old school girl has won a trip with her classmates to The Look Out Discovery Centre in Bracknell Council's No More MayBes campaign.

Alice Smith, a pupil from Meadowbrook Montessori School, Warfield, won the schools and groups category. She said they should win because her school community is very kind and thoughtful.

No More MayBes was designed motivate Bracknell residents to start a new leisure activity - whether it is discovering more about the world we live in, going along once a week to an aquarobics session or visiting the gym before work every morning.

Eight other individuals or businesses have also been awarded prizes. The prizes ranged from a three month platinum membership package at Bracknell Leisure Centre and Edgbarrow and Sandhurst’s Body Logic, to a private golf lesson at Downshire Golf Complex and family tickets to Coral Reef Water World.

Kevin Biles, Bracknell Leisure Centre’s Business Development Manager, said: "We had competition entries from mums who have a full time job looking after kids and little time for themselves, to business people with huge time pressures.

"Everyone who entered wanted to find a way to get fitter, healthier and get into shape."

Cllr Iain McCracken, Executive Member for Leisure and Corporate Services, said: "Even for those who lead very busy lives, our leisure centres with their fully trained staff, are open long hours to give residents and visitors to the borough the maximum opportunity get the most from their services and meet their personal fitness goals.”
