Some exciting moments; the signage on the front of the building is up and the first pieces of equipment have started to arrive!This will be the view as you enter the front door; reception will be directly in front of you, windows looking in to the gym on the left and the stairs on the right. The gym entrance will be at the end of the hallway, past reception.
We would happily welcome any donations to reduce our set-up costs and we are particularly looking for…

We have been rebuilding interior walls. Check out that view from upstairs, looking out across the gym space!We uncovered existing windows which allow even more natural light into the building.After a lot of clearing out and preparation, work to shape the building into a gym can begin! We have retained some of the upstairs space for offices, a viewing area and a studio. We also hope to add a cafeteria in the future.The building was previously used as science laboratories. The first step was to remove most of the first floor, which will give us the height we need for our gymnastics and acrobatic equipment.
