Covid-19 meant the gym had to extend their services and communications to provide online exercise to their more vulnerable members wary of leaving home during the pandemic and afterwards. This meant that people who are disabled or living with life changing health problems, including stroke, Parkinson’s Disease, multiple sclerosis, mental illness, head injury and cancer, were more likely to continue with vital exercise programmes.
The club works with vulnerable members of society and children, many of who cannot pay for member fees or buy team kit. The grant funded boxing gloves for children and safety equipment and registration fees for adults to participate in tournaments.
