Virgin Active is NOT giving the savings to charity

You may have heard from some people that Virgin Active is giving the savings made by removing the sweat towels to charity.

That is NOT true. Virgin Active is NOT giving the savings made to charity.

This has been confirmed in writing by Virgin Active head office in an email copied in the Blog below.

E mail to Virgin Active confirming that the person provided is decision maker

Dear *****

Thank you again for your helpful response.

I will ensure, as a matter of courtesy if nothing else that you are copied into all correspondence. For the avoidance of doubt, ***** as UK Operations Manager is the individual our petition should be directed to as the ultimate decision in relation to the towels is his to make?

Again, many thanks,

Dear *****,

Thank you for your response.

I can confirm ***** our UK Operations Manager would be the appropriate person to address the correspondence to, however I would suggest you also address it to myself so I can forward all information to him when he is out of the office to ensure you receive a prompt response.

Kind Regards,

E mail sent to Virgin Active requesting contact info for decision maker

See below e mail sent to Virgin Active requesting contact info for decision maker:


Dear *****,

Thank you for your prompt reply.

I thought I made it clear but if I did not my apologies, that I am fully aware that you would pass on all complaints etc but since there will be a substantial petition in relation to the towels matter it is not too much to expect to be able to present such a document to the actual decision maker.

I really do not wish to appear rude but I do ask that you inform me who the decision maker (s) is/are so that the petition can be formally addressed to them.

With thanks,
