We're here! To help you keep moving.

March 20, 2020

What an extraordinary week in unprecedented times. This week, for the first time since we opened 14 years ago, we closed our gym and suspended face to face services. This is all of course to protect our gym members in the wake of corona virus (Covid-19) and to abide by the progressively changing guidelines from Public Health England.

Service Update From Ability Bow

March 16, 2020

We have issued a statement regarding the coronavirus below. 

Public Health England is now recommending some new actions that will help delay the spread of Covid-19. In support of the delay strategy, Ability Bow has decided to suspend its specialist disabilities exercise services.

This means there will be no gym or exercise services at Ability Bow gym or at our community group classes until further notice.
