The first MANFIT session took place on Friday 1 December 2006. The exclusive sessions now take place weekly on Tuesdays at 10.30 am followed by a free meal.

The gym's high-tech machines are easily adaptable for anyone. Two experienced trainers supervise and advise people.

Once confident enough people will be able to take part in integrated sessions although they can stay in exclusive sessions if they prefer to.

Before The Douglas Bader Foundation funded our gym sessions we needed funds. One of the people who raised money for us was Tracy Delaroute . Her daughter, Leanne, who is a beautician held a charity evening at the beauty salon she works for where the funds raised were given to Manfit.

Here's the link to the salon:

Bev’s charity head shave

Bev who is the partner of Manfit member Graham Duff did a sponsored head shave for Christies and Manfit funds. She bravely had her beautiful long blond hair shaved off! She raised over £2000! She has split the funds between Christies and Manfit and we were very grateful to receive a cheque for £1100.

Here is a photo of Bev before her head shave and one of her presenting some of our members with the cheque:
