use of gym's on extra care schemes

Paula Underwood 05/01/11 General Housing Topics

We are looking to set up a "gym" at an extra care scheme and would appreciate any advice and or guidance that any other organisation has on the use of gym's on extra care schemes. I would be interested in hearing from organisations who have successfully managed to develop and operate a gym/health suite.

Hi May I suggest you contact Sue at Denham Village _ Anchor . I was impressed with the setup and management. Best wishes

Hi Paula - can you advise whether you are looking at a fitness suite for residents only, or to include the wider community? Are you looking at including the charge for use into residents service charges or as a pay as you go option?
