We want to be an inclusive gym but our gym is on the first floor meaning some of our clients are unable to access the facilities and the specialist equipment we have on offer. We need stair lift
Sorry this project was unsuccessful, we did not reach our fundraising goal.
Adding a stairlift to the building means that we can offer our services to more groups. Once in the gym the building the gym is flat. We already have some adapted and specialist equipment and we are unable to utilise it due to our new location. We already offer classes to children who have a variety of disabilities and are working with Smile Through sport and Sported to offer more sessions Some groups are unable to access our classes due to the first floor location and some children/adults miss out. By adding a stair lift we will be able to utilise the disability power lifting bench, run more adaptive sessions and work with more people in Sunderland.
What we'll deliver:
Why it's a great idea:
allowing access to adapted equipment with fully trained coaches will allow more people to train and learn a sport, reducing social isolation, improving fitness, both physically and mentally.
