Amazing staff.
The staff, especially Toby and Rhys, are wonderful. They welcome you cheerfully and nothing is too much trouble. I cannot praise them enough.
The facilities, particularly the number of lockers with broken locks, can be mildly irritating but, I understand, the new management are planning refurbishments.

Better.org now at Wycombe Rye Lido
Better.org has just taken over Wycombe Rye Lido. They have repainted, repaired and re-signed key areas to freshen the place up. Staff are as good as ever. Sign in uses their mobile app so no worries about finding your membership card. Slight downside is their app doesn’t connect with mobile calendar; latter gives you reminders and fits alongside other appointments.

Its been a bit neglected before they took over but they seem to be trying to sort out some of the equipment and resumed the service quickly. I did nt give them five stars yet as there are still areas like changing rooms that will need to be takled at some point. So far so good

Improving facilities
In the short time since Better have taken over Wycombe Lido there has been a noticeable improvement in the facility. Maintenance has taken place and plans in place for further steps. I feel they are taking positive steps.

Brilliant new owners!
After taking over the Lido, in less than one week they have cleaned the whole place thoroughly and started to repair things that need mending. The staff are really friendly accommodating and seem engaged with the job in hand (not bored). And the way the high demand for swimming (over the heat waves) has been handled is really impressive. The pool never feels over full or our of control ( whereas it often did under previous management.)

Frustrating system that doesn't help customers
On the whole, it is quite frustrating to use their online booking system (I don't have space for apps on my phone) to book fitness classes at my local gym, particularly when the classes are popular and you have to be added to a waitlist, then respond immediately after being notified the space is available by logging in to grab it, only to find it is already gone. I have complained about this as it does not work for customers as well as the previous system of telephone notification when a space becomes available, as missing out frequently on my chosen sessions means I do not feel I am getting the value of the cost of my membership. In response to my complaint about this, the customer service rep advised me I must try to book 6 days in advance to get a space, which really isn't terribly practical especially when they also fine you £3 for any missed session, which again never happened before under the previous management. Although the customer service rep said she understood my frustration, she also expressed indifference as to whether I would continue as a customer. Therefore I don't see that this company actually cares about its customers or their health and fitness needs, it just seems to exist for its own financisl benefit - not really what you'd expect from something billed as a 'charity'.

Hi Jane,
Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback.
We’re really sorry to hear about your experience with the online booking system. We understand how frustrating it must be to rely on waitlists, only to miss out on available spaces, especially when classes are in high demand. Your comments about the previous telephone notification system and how the current process impacts your ability to attend sessions are very important, and we appreciate you highlighting this.
We also recognise your concerns regarding booking in advance and the missed session charge, and how this can affect the overall value of your membership. We would also like to add that you do not need the app in order to book - you can book via the main website.
Additionally, you can cancel up to four hours before the activity starts and not incur a fee. This means that if you were to book as soon as the sessions are released (7 days in advance at 10pm for members and 5 days for non-members) and then cancel later on in the week, the space can be released for another customer to book and you will not incur any penalties (providing you cancel more than four hours before the start time).
Your feedback is extremely valuable, and it helps us better understand where improvements are needed to support our members’ health and fitness journeys.
Warm Regards,
Hazal
Terrible login process and app
Terrible login process and app. The transfer of my membership from fusion to better, was definitively not a better experience, and a terrible intro to better. Let’s hope they live up to the Better name, so far no evidence of that

Hi Stephan,
Thank you for your feedback.
We’re really sorry to hear about your experience during the transfer from Fusion to Better, and the difficulties you’ve faced with the login process and app. We understand how important it is for these systems to work smoothly, especially when joining us or transitioning memberships, and we’re sorry that this was not the case for you.
A poor first impression is never what we want for our members, and we completely appreciate how frustrating this must have been. Your comments will be shared with the relevant teams to review both the transfer process and the app experience, as we’re always looking for ways to improve and make things easier for our members.
Please do bear in mind that we have only taken over the operation of this facility on the 1st of July, so it will take us time to rectify issues from the previous provider.
We do hope that your future experiences reflect the standards we aim to deliver, and thank you for giving us the opportunity to improve.
Warm Regards,
Hazal

I love the pool on the rye but the changing facilities in general are pretty awful. Lockers are all broken and the floor is dirty and always wet. There needs to be someone cleaning the facility consistently for you to maintain good levels of hygiene and please sort the lockers out.

Hi Anne,
Thank you for your feedback.
We’re really pleased to hear that you enjoy the pool at Wycombe Rye Lido. It’s great to know that part of your experience stands out positively.
We’re very sorry to hear about the condition of the changing facilities. Your comments regarding the cleanliness, wet floors, and the state of the lockers are concerning and do not reflect the standards we aim to maintain. We completely understand how important a clean and well-maintained environment is for our members.
We will ensure your feedback is shared with the management team so they can review cleaning schedules and address the locker issues as a priority. Please do bear in mind that we have only taken over the operation of this facility on the 1st of July, so it will take us time to rectify issues from the previous provider.
Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience, as it helps us improve our facilities and service.
Warm Regards,
Hazal

I have just become a member of Wycombe Rye Lido. Better has taken it on, as it went into liquidation. It would have been a huge community loss if it had been shut. The main problem is the maintenance of the building, or lack of it. Needs a complete overhaul, costs money and needs investment, which we are starting to slowly see with Better. The previous staff have been supported by Better Colleagues in the transition period. So helpful and smiling 😊 I have found the team. Thank you for keeping Wycombe Rye Lido and Making it Better 🌟
