Junior fitness
We believe a physically active child is much more likely to become a physically active adult. We run the following supervised sessions for children aged 11-15 years to attend:
- Monday - Friday 3:15pm - 4.00pm, 4.00pm - 4.45pm, 4.45pm - 5.30pm
- Saturday and Sunday 8.45am - 9.30am, 4.00pm - 4.45pm, 4.45pm - 5.30pm
All junior gym users must complete a group introduction before using the gym independently. These sessions last 30 minutes and can be booked with a member of our team when joining.
- Wednesday: 5.30pm
- Saturday & Sunday: 12.30pm & 3.00pm
Once a junior member has completed their introduction and received programme advice they can attend outside the above supervised sessions with a parent/guardian or appropriate adult (18+) on a ratio of a maximum four juniors per adult.

NHS Health Checks
The NHS Health Check is a health check-up for adults in England aged 40-74. It's designed to spot early signs of stroke, kidney disease, heart disease, type 2 diabetes or dementia. As we get older, we have a higher risk of developing one of these conditions. An NHS Health Check helps you find ways to lower this risk.
We offer this service for free if you meet the NHS criteria, however not to worry if you don’t, we can offer you the same service for just £25.
To find out more, please get in touch.
