Whether you are just starting out or a gym regular, this is your space dedicated to helping you achieve your goals, push your limits, and embrace a healthier lifestyle.  

A lifesaver if you are looking to keep your little ones busy, and always a treat for them (and you). Our holiday activities give children the opportunity to meet and make friends, discover new interests, explore and try out new sports and activities, and stay fit and healthy.

Halo’s birthday party selection is the secret to the happiest day without the hassle of entertaining a crowd at home. Let your kids climb, splash or bounce around with friends in a safe, supervised arena. Just sit back, take photos, and store away some lovely memories.

The library has a wonderful stock of adult fiction and non-fiction as well as a special selection of books for children and teens, and books can be reserved from other Shropshire libraries.

Halo Leisure is a registered charity and Social Enterprise operating community-focused leisure facilities throughout Bridgend County, Gloucestershire, Herefordshire, Merthyr Tydfil County, Shropshire, Wiltshire and Stratford-upon-Avon.

Everything we do is about creating healthier happier communities for the good of the people who live and work in them. As a not-for-profit organisation, Halo doesn’t have shareholders like private companies. Instead, we reinvest profit straight back into the work we do in your area to enhance and improve the leisure and health facilities for everyone to enjoy.

We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.

To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.

This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.

Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.

If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email [email protected]

Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:

We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers).

Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs. There may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to [email protected]
