"Those who take up the offer will become highlife members for the ten consecutive days from their first use of their card. In line with the standard highlife membership, this ten day opportunity can be used in any of the charity's 25 leisure facilities across the Highlands.
Emma added, ""We know that people are looking for low-cost purchase options at the moment so we have come up with this new promotion over the course of October to give people a taster of the many physical and mental health and wellbeing benefits of having a highlife card."
The High Life Highland ‘Ten Days for £10' offer will run alongside the charity's existing promotions. Currently, any person that subscribes to the charity's highlife membership during the month of September is put into a free prize draw to win an Apple iPhone 13 and individuals and families joining during the month of October will be in with a chance of winning a e-bike.
