The challenge:
Cheltenham Leisure offers various activities and on-site facilities to support the local community. The gym features spacious open areas and the latest fitness equipment, enabling the site to support everyone's fitness goals.
The cutting-edge space offers members the best fitness equipment available. A standout aspect of this site is the accessibility focus, a key aspect during the gym's design, as it was essential to make the site accessible to as many people from the community as possible.


The solution:
Leisure at Cheltenham wanted to raise the game when it came to building a new fitness space. They wanted to go bigger but also factor in the accessibility aspects sometimes not considered. They wanted a premium space for all members, where everyone could achieve their fitness goals.
The site is stocked with a versatile range of gym equipment. Many top-of-the-range Impulse strength machines were included, including the Origin GHD Machine. The all-black colour choice gives the space a sleek, modern vibe.


Accessibility was an important aspect of the project, so we invited our brand ambassador and GB athlete, Ben Fox, to see the space. The equipment at this site closely matched the equipment we supplied for him to help with his training, which he found to make a real difference in helping him perform better on the court.
Adding a touch of colour to the space, our brightly coloured Urethane Bumper Plates really pop in the space. When Ben Fox came to see the site himself, he said that seeing this type of equipment would entice members to come back to train again and again.
The outcome:
Leisure at Cheltenham is in a strong position to support new members in achieving their fitness goals. Top of the range equipment and a new layout makes the space even more appealing to old and new members alike. With a focus on accessibility, the site is now ready to support everyone in the local community.
