Testimonial
“Donna was wonderful. She listened to my disability needs. She tailored exercises to what my body can do. Donna was with me on my training days, supported and encouraged me throughout the program.
Donna has been the most influential person in my life. She has introduced me to a new way of living. I really can’t express enough how important this Gym referral has been to me and how grateful I am to Donna for opening the doors to a fitter life.
I feel psychologically happier, physically more confident and generally more positive.
This is due to the cheerful, respectful professionalism, of Donna and the positive inclusiveness of the Sleaford Gym.
The staff at the gym have moved the physical space and furniture by the lockers so as to make it safer for me to sit and access my coats and bags. They did not see this as an inconvenience or beyond their remit and did everything to make sure I was welcomed into a space that; I as a disabled person, have for many years previously, felt that I didn’t belong.
Now, I go regularly to the Sleaford Gym on my own and feel confident, at last, that I belong there.
Finally, this 12 week program has been an eye opener to me and the first step in my fitness journey. I have seen my body shape change, improvements in the strength of my limbs and seen my weights increase at the gym. I have signed up as a member for the gym and I actually miss the gym if I don’t go at least twice a week. “
