Aim
ODFC wants to protect you from the elements at basecamp, allowing winter training through the pandemic and beyond. We need overhead cover.
The global COVID-19 pandemic has created a very uncertain landscape for millions of British small businesses, which is going to make it very challenging for businesses to survive. ODFC went online during lockdown and when the country opened up we invested heavily in our outdoor gym to allow a safe training environment away from the general public.
We are now looking to invest still further to protect our clients and our private training area with the purchase of an overhead canopy for the winter. The canopy will provide shelter from the elements but will not be enclosed. We will remain an outdoor bootcamp.
Hopefully this will allow training to continue, in line with Government guidance, over the winter months. With a tough winter ahead, North-East weather and COVID-19, this will be vital for physical and mental wellbeing. One of the best ways to protect ourselves from this virus is to stay fit and active. We are committed to helping our members achieve this.
