“The idea is to make exercise available to all and to remove the barriers people might face when considering sport.”
"You don’t need any special clothing or equipment and it’s completely free of charge.”
“It will be suitable for the school’s students and also for the rest of the local community, including the town’s pensioners. We hope people will come along and make good use of this fantastic facility.”
A Hampshire school and community group have teamed up to develop an outdoor gym to suit the entire community. The project was sponsored by the UK National Lottery's BIG Lottery grants.
