What a great idea, i have seen this in bognor and wished for it nearer home. I for one will be using this on a regular basis hopefully. (my new much needed fitness regime) Thanks to whoever arranged this. |

A warm welcome to the Forums, Eliza.
Not sure who exactly at the Parish Council originally thought of the fitness equipment, but I recall that the previous Council chairman, Nigel Nunn, mentioned it about a couple of years' ago. Nigel pressed the Environment & Leisure Committee for un update at their meeting on 27 July this year, so I guess the original idea may well have come from Nigel. Anyway, also well done to the Environment & Leisure Committee for pushing ahead with the project and getting the grant from Arun. |

Lets wait for the first person to sue when they get an injury from it! |

My personal thanks to everyone who got this project through to completion - and yes it is all down to Nigel who pressed to get this and put in a lot of the groundwork for it.
I had a brilliant hour there this morning trying all the equipment out, except for one which I am sure I am too short for! It was quite amazing and also thanks to Sylvia for giving me such a laugh on one of the pieces. Not sure what hurt the most when I got off, my leg musles from the exercise or my sides from laughing so much!
A great result and an even greater bunch to be working with.

Was impressed to see these, they have a similar (not as good) set up at a park in Barnham. One thing though, when I noticed them a few weeks ago some kids had already peeled the instructions off and the area was covered in litter. I didn't notice a bin near the equipment so that might be an idea to have one installed. |
