The Scottish Leisure Network Group is a not-for-profit voluntary organisation staffed by members from Leisure Trust organisations. The Group was founded in 2003 by Bobby Kerr of West Dunbartonshire Leisure Limited, who saw the need to bring together local authority providers to share best practice and experience. Since then, the Group and the landscape of leisure operators has changed with the emergence of Leisure Trusts and the growth in the University sports sector. The Group welcomes these new types of members and is committed to a partnership approach to providing sport and leisure industry guidance, sharing of best practice and develop bench-marking processes.
