Sligo Sports and Recreation Partnership's Green Gym - Come & Try Week

Sligo Sport and Recreation Partnership’s (SSRP) Green Gym Come and Try Week at the Doorly Park Outdoor Gym is designed to offer a workout for all abilities, from beginners to experts and from young adults to the elderly. Outdoor gyms have the same low-impact, resistance-based equipment found at indoor gyms, but with the added bonus of the lovely views and fresh air included.

Sligo Borough Council has provided a wide range of equipment to suit all needs at Doorly Park, which offers a range of exercise opportunities, including toning of the upper and lower body and fitness to the heart and lungs. ThisGym provides a great opportunity for everyone to enjoy fitness and healthy active living for free. Sligo Sport and Recreation Partnership are now running a series of come and try workshops with a qualified instructor from Monday 28^th March to the Friday 1^st April, on how to use the equipment safely and correctly, and help people of all ages and abilities get the most out of the equipment.

SSRP’s Community Sport Development Officer, Diane Middleton, stated “We’d like to encourage everyone, especially anyone living or working near the outdoor gym who has not yet tried them out to come along to a scheduled session and give them a go. They’re free, open 24 hours a day and suitable for all adults and levels of fitness”

This brand new gym offers you the opportunity to have fun exercising, whilst enjoying the fresh air of the outdoors.
