On the 23rd April 2024 we'd raised £24,390 with 295 supporters in 56 days. But as every pound matters, we're continuing to collect donations from supporters.
Tumble Gymnastics and Activity Centre proudly offer free gym access to all our users. We providing a diverse array of accessible fitness machines. However, our current space can no longer accommodate the growing demand. We're seeking funding to relocate the gym outside, and your support can make this vision a reality.
Following a successful crowdfunding campaign where we met our target, we're excited to announce new additions to our project. With this come increased costs, we've enhanced our facilities by planting new trees in our garden and want to create a welcoming space for all users. It's essential that the route through the garden remains accessible, ensuring inclusivity for everyone, this means added costs.
The expanded gym will feature a wider range of equipment, catering to diverse users and groups. Additionally, the transformation of our old gym space into an expanded coffee shop will provide a versatile area for families, businesses, and community events. Your support will help us realise these enhancements and continue serving our community with excellence. With this in mind we have set up another Crowdfunder with the hopes of match funding from sport England which we were not successful with securing last time.
The funds raised will contribute to the construction costs of a new facility, estimated at £60-70,000 for a spacious 14m by 9m insulated steel frame building. This move will greatly benefit our community of Tumble customers, who visit our center approximately 2000 visitors come through our doors every week. Furthermore, it will allow us to promote our accessible gym offering, a task hindered by our current space's fire evacuation restrictions.
With the expanded area, we'll be able to introduce more accessible machines, enhancing the fitness experience for all. Moreover, relocating the gym will create additional space in our community cafe, where parents and families gather while their children participate in gymnastics or attend baby classes.
Your contribution will not only facilitate our growth but also enable us to better serve our community. Join us in making fitness accessible to all and creating a welcoming space for families to connect and thrive.
