Free fitness session.

Healthy body healthy mind.

We believe in that statement but also understand the struggles people can face. For some the gym environment doesn’t feel like a place to step out of their comfort zone and for others the financial costs of engaging in a sport, club or fitness class is beyond their means.

In the Medway Towns where there are areas of deprivation, we try to bridge this gap by giving people access to our free fitness sessions.

We work in partnership with St Augustine’s church in Gillingham who host a free community coffee and chat morning, The space is set up for other wellbeing groups in the area to come and promote their services. We work with them on a weekly basis to provide 45 mins of free fitness training at the beginning of every coffee morning at 9:30am every Wednesday. We run circuit training sessions which are suitable for all abilities and can be adapted to each person’s needs. After the session many of our attendees stay to utilise the coffee morning and access local services. We are always on hand after our fitness sessions to support the community with our partners.

Service access criteria: Accepting referrals from the Medway area or those willing to travel across Kent. Available for 16 + years old.
