National Fitness Day in Greenwich

Better leisure centres across Greenwich are joining sport and leisure facilities around the country to support National Fitness Day on Wednesday, 26 September.

National Fitness Day by ukactive is a chance to celebrate the fun of physical activity and the important role it plays in helping us lead healthier, more active lifestyles.

The most active day of the year

To help you take part in this national celebration, Better leisure centres around the UK, including The Waterfront Leisure Centre, The Greenwich Centre and The Eltham Centre, are hosting a range of FREE activities for all the family, including:

• Power Pump, The Greenwich Centre (8pm-9pm)
• Free guest pass and session from a Fitness Instructor, The Eltham Centre (All day)
• Box Fit, Thamesmere Leisure Centre (8pm-9pm)
• Fitness Circuits, Charlton Lido (6pm-7pm)
• Group Cycle, The Waterfront Leisure Centre (11am -12pm & 6pm-7pm)

Marco Coppola, National Health & Fitness Manager at GLL said: “We are delighted to once again support ukactive’s National Fitness Day.

“Better Leisure Centres exist to provide affordable, accessible leisure facilities, to get more people more active more often. By supporting National Fitness Day, we are able to work alongside ukactive, aligning similar views to encourage people in communities across the country, to take part in physical activity.

“We have a range of exciting events taking place on the day, to suit people of all ages and abilities and we encourage everyone to head down to their local Better leisure centre and take part.”

Support for moving more all year round

Being active doesn’t have to mean a gym workout or competitive sport. There are plenty of great outdoor spaces, leisure facilities and clubs for you to try out on your own, as a family or with friends.

To help you on your way, Greenwich Get Active is giving away free trial/introductory sessions.

To find out what’s happening near you and get free trial/introductory sessions call our team on 0800 096 5436, text ACTIVE to 60066 or visit Greenwich Get Active.
