Our outstanding operations manager Si Mohamed Dahiri is celebrating a terrific 10 years at our Ability Bow gym!

Si Mohamed, who has worked in various roles at inner London's only disability and long-term health conditions gym - including past functions as a fitness instructor and deputy manager - joined Ability Bow in May 2008 after a previous stint as an estate agent and completion of a GP exercise referral qualification while working as fitness manager at Kings College Student Union.

One in four people encounter a mental health condition in their lifetime, according to leading UK mental health charities including Mind. With mental health diagnoses - including anxiety, depression, stress and low mood - often encountering public stigma, those experiencing these symptoms can often feel isolated and misunderstood.

An Ability Bow gym user with a visual impairment as part of recovery from a brain aneurysm which kept her in her ‘bedroom for a year’, says she can finally be her again thanks to the ‘life-changing’ 12 month rehabilitation work she has completed as part of our service, which is inner London’s only disability-tailored gym.
