looking to get active

Globster · June 2018

My name is Jay, I have cerebral palsy and I am in a wheelchair but I am looking for a gym in Coventry where use all the gym equipment while still sitting in my wheelchair.

I would appreciate anyone advice and help

Hi @Globster (Jay)
I saw that you had problems during your recent gym induction. I have exactly the same problem with most gym equipment. Are able to transfer from your wheelchair to sit on a multi-gym?

Unfortunately far too few fully inclusive gyms but this database can sometimes help to find them:

No, I'm not able to transfer on own without lifted by dad or mum or be hoisted Richard

Hi @Globster
I have called the major gyms in Coventry and the best result I have received was from Warwick Sport. The staff said there are potentially three pieces of equipment you could use.
