The gym offers a variety of facilities and programs designed to cater to individuals of all fitness levels, promoting health and well-being within the local community.
Dementia-Friendly Initiatives
Places Leisure, the parent organization of Places Gym Preston, has partnered with national dementia charities, including the Alzheimer’s Society UK and the Dementia Action Alliance, to enhance accessibility for individuals living with dementia. This collaboration led to the development of a tailored dementia awareness online training programme for leisure centre staff. The training aims to equip team members with the knowledge and skills to recognize signs of dementia, communicate effectively, and provide supportive experiences for those affected.
The initiative underscores the importance of creating inclusive environments in leisure facilities. By implementing dementia-friendly practices, Places Gym Preston and other centres within the network strive to ensure that individuals living with dementia can continue to engage in physical activities, which are beneficial for maintaining mental health and overall well-being.
