Members of the St Andrews Parish Council have announced that the grand opening of its new outdoor gym will take place this month.

The grand opening ceremony will take place at 11am on Saturday 18 March, at the outdoor gym site in Brook Park, Redhouse in Swindon. 

There will be a ribbon cutting, equipment demonstrations and free giveaways for attendees to enjoy. 

Work began on the gym back in November, and the site can be found alongside the existing junior play park and multi-use games area at Brook Park. 

The outdoor gym has been funded by Section 106 funds - which are designated for leisure use. The council said these funds allowed it to deliver the new gym with no impact on the parish precept. 

This new fitness space is part of St Andrews’ ongoing investment in to play parks and open spaces, which includes continuing to modernise every play park over the coming year with accessible facilities.
