Virgin Active is a chain of health clubs in South Africa, Italy, Spain, Portugal and the United Kingdom. Initially a South African Company, The Health and Racquet Club, it was at near collapse when it was acquired by Richard Branson's Virgin Group at the personal request of Nelson Mandela. It has subsequently expanded its operations to Italy, Spain, the UK and Australia.

On the November 1st 2006 it took over the UK-based operation of the more prestigious Holmes Place chain, thus increasing its UK chain of clubs from 24 to 72 overnight. (Credit: Wikipedia).
