Precor helps to kit out Bishop's Stortford gym
By Sarah Todd
Grange Paddocks Leisure Centre in Bishop's Stortford, Hertfordshire, has reopened following the completion of a £1.89m renovation funded by East Herts District Council (EHDC).
Work on the refurbishment programme at the Everyone Active centre, which is operated by SLM on behalf of the council, started in May 2009 to provide a new 85-station fitness suite and group exercise studio.
The centre's gym, which has been enlarged from a 26-station facility, also provides a new studio space for dance classes, as well as offering pilates, yoga and Body Pump courses. Precor, Power Plate and Trixter have supplied the equipment for the new suite.
Designs for the new-look gym were drawn up by HCD Architects on behalf of SLM, while contractor Phoenix carried out the renovation work.
EHDC's refurbishment of Grange Paddocks Leisure Centre, which also offers a swimming pool, forms part of a leisure contract with Everyone Active which was signed in January 2009.
Centre manager Alison Norman said: "Our mission is to help people achieve 30 minutes of activity five times a week."
