“We are now fully open and after Easter we are hoping to tie up with local schools about fitness lessons andwith local youth groups. There is an important social element to fitness and it is good for mental health too.
“We always said that we wanted to get schools involved and the facilities here mean that they can have more than one person doing a particular activity at a time in their lessons.”
