PureGym, the UK’s largest gym operator, will open a new facility in Whitehaven at 12pm September 26.

Located on The Bridges Retail Park, next to B&M, PureGym Whitehaven will provide members with access to flexible, affordable fitness – all through its flagship low-cost, zero-contract memberships.

Advancing PureGym’s mission to inspire a healthier nation, the c. 8,000 sq. ft gym will supply members  with access to everything they need to achieve their fitness potential and enhance their overall wellbeing, including:

• A range of state-of-the-art equipment

• A functional zone, free weights area, fixed resistance, cardio equipment, and a fitness studio

• A range of classes, all included within the membership price

• Certified PTs available to support clients and a free initial exercise induction

• Free parking on site

It is hoped the new gym will drive footfall to the retail park and it is expected to create six new jobs.

PureGym is also on the lookout for people who want to turn their passion for fitness into a career through the PureGym Personal Training Academy. The programme equips candidates to become certified PTs in just 14 weeks.

A spokesperson for PureGym said: “As the UK’s favourite gym, our mission is to help more people lead healthier and more active lives every day, which is why we are excited to be opening a brand new gym in Whitehaven.

“All through our flexible, zero-contract memberships, members will have 24/7 access to everything they need to improve their mental and physical wellbeing, so they can work out and leave feeling their best.

“We can’t wait to welcome members through the doors of PureGym Whitehaven – sign up to our opening offer!”
