Inclusive

Proposed equipment

We're aiming to build an outdoor fitness park for people of all ages and abilities. Not a private gym. No membership. Always open.

The park will have wheelchair-friendly equipment for beginners through to more advanced users, so disabled people can train alongside everyone else. A Time Together rig, inspired by the Women in Sport campaign, is there so the space is welcoming for women.

The proposed mix is from TGO. The final equipment depends on the site and funding.
