Thomas Rose, head of Cushman &Wakefield?s leisure team who is retained by The Gym Group said: 'We are delighted to secure these new sites on behalf of The Gym Group - they continue to provide an excellent solution for landlords where a retail tenant has collapsed into administration or where a landlord wants a quality footfall generator.
