Gym membership renewal: cooling-off and notice — what to check
A dated note on the consumer rights and CMA work that frame how UK gym membership contracts renew or roll on after a minimum term.
Published 1 January 2026
What changed
The Consumer Rights Act 2015 governs fairness of terms in consumer contracts, including notice periods.
The Competition and Markets Authority's work on health and fitness clubs has addressed gym contract terms such as minimum membership periods and cancellation notice. Many memberships roll on monthly after the minimum term ends unless the member gives notice.
What it means before the renewal date
The renewal or rollover date is when the membership continues at the current price or moves to a new price. Notice periods often require the member to act before the rollover date for the change to take effect on time.
A diary entry tied to the notice deadline — not the rollover date itself — is what makes a clean exit or downgrade possible without an extra month.
What to do now
Check the minimum-term end date and the notice period required to cancel.
Check the price the membership will roll on at after the minimum term.
Check whether the household is actually using the membership.
