Former Strictly Come Dancing champion Joe McFadden has hit out at a gym chain after he claimed two of its branches weren’t sanitising properly.
The ex-Holby City, Heartbeat and High Road actor said he was so disgusted with hygiene standards that he was quitting his membership.
Glasgow-born Joe first told fans of his disgust with a PureGym near his home in London
last Thursday.
Posting a picture of the messy overflowing bins, Joe said on Instagram: “Stop the spread. No tissues at any of the cleaning stations tonight.Tut.”
Joe gave the gym chain a second chance and went to another branch on Friday evening but was again unimpressed by the lack of wipes to clean the machines.
He took to Twitter to express his disappointment and said: “That’s my membership cancelled. Forgiving of most things but failure to keep members safe for the second day in a row is a deal-breaker.”
PureGym said: “We are disappointed to learn of this member’s experience at our gym in Finchley where our hygiene stations had run out of cleaning paper.
“We are working hard to ensure all hygiene stations are stocked at all times… (and) gyms cleaned five times a day, with a deep clean overnight.”
