Paul’s Inspiring Journey
Magna Vitae Trust for Leisure & Culture is proud to announce that it has been shortlisted for the People Above Profit category at the inaugural Community Leisure UK Seriously Social Awards 2024. This recognition celebrates the inspiring journey of Paul, a longstanding member of Skegness Pool & Fitness Suite, whose story we recently shared across our website and social media channels. Paul’s resilience and commitment to personal growth have touched many in our community and highlight the impact of supportive leisure spaces.
The Seriously Social Awards honour the significant social value community leisure trusts like ours bring to individuals, communities, and society. As a Trust, we are fortunate to capture and share stories that showcase the positive changes happening daily in our venues. Paul’s story is particularly meaningful to us because he exemplifies what it means to be an active, valued member of our community at Skegness Pool & Fitness Suite.
Nick Marshall, Operations Manager at Skegness Pool & Fitness Suite, commented:
“We are thrilled to be recognised for the People Above Profit award, especially with Paul’s journey at the heart of our nomination. His story reflects our dedication to supporting the community—not because it’s expected, but because we genuinely care. Making a difference in the lives of those we serve is our greatest reward.”
The awards ceremony will take place on Wednesday 13 November at The Lowry in Manchester, where the winners of the inaugural Seriously Social Awards will be announced.
