Survey: What do you gain from attending our facilities?

At Peninsula Leisure, we know our facilities are more than places to swim, workout, take a class or recover. They’re spaces where people build healthy lifestyles, confidence and connection.

This year, we’re inviting you to take part in a new kind of survey, one that goes beyond facilities and timetables. We want to understand how attending PARC:

💪 Impacts your physical health and mental wellbeing
💙 Helps you feel connected to community
⭐️ Adds value to you or your family’s life

Your answers will help us measure the value to our community and the real-world impact of our programs and spaces. We want to hear from everyone – Peninsula Leisure is a child-friendly organisation, and we’re especially keen to hear from young people.

The survey is open until 26 April 2026 and will take around 10 minutes. Participants can go in the draw to win 1 of 3 x $100 Rebel Sport vouchers! Complete the survey via the link in our bio.

Thank you for helping us build an even stronger, healthier community 💙
