Everyone Active gyms across Aylesbury set to offer free day entry this Wednesday

Aqua Vale Swimming and Fitness Centre, Swan Pool and Leisure Centre and The Chiltern Pools and Gym, all managed by sports and leisure operator Everyone Active in partnership with Buckinghamshire Council, will be offering free access to their gyms on Wednesday 23 September.

The incentive is designed to make exercise accessible for all members of the community regardless of their age, background or ability.

Chris Williams, Contract Manager at Everyone Active, said: “We’re thoroughly looking forward to welcoming people of all fitness levels down to our facilities on National Fitness Day.

“The pandemic has undoubtedly had an impact on many people in the local community, so we want to ensure that for one day, everyone has access to our facilities to try them out for free.

“Ensuring our colleagues and customers remain safe is our number one priority and we have introduced a number of new safety measures to ensure that everyone can visit us without having to worry, and work out in a safe and welcoming environment.”

Those who are interested in visiting any of the above centres on 23 September will need to register online and complete an online induction before attending.

"If you’re not already a member, I’d encourage you to register for free gym access on Wednesday 23 September at our leisure centres in Amersham, Aylesbury and Buckingham.”

National Fitness Day is an annual event which takes place during the European Week of Sport and celebrates the benefits of physical activity for health, happiness and wellbeing.

Coordinated by health body ukactive and supported by AXA PPP healthcare, it aims to raise awareness of the importance of leading healthy, active lifestyles.

Everyone Active procedures ensure social distancing is managed throughout the centres and regular cleaning is maintained.
