Outdoor Gym Installation at Gilbert Avenue Playing Fields, Tuxford
Gym Supply for Community Playing Fields
Sunshine Gym worked with local representatives to deliver a new fitness project at Gilbert Avenue Playing Fields, Tuxford. By providing a complete gym supply and installation service, we ensured that the community received durable, safe, and high-quality outdoor fitness equipment tailored to local needs.
The project demonstrates how investing in outdoor gyms can add long-term value to public spaces, creating facilities that encourage residents to enjoy regular exercise in a free and accessible environment.
Outdoor Gym Installation in Tuxford
As part of our expertise in outdoor gym installation, Sunshine Gym supplied a range of equipment designed to support cardiovascular health, strength building, and general wellbeing. The installation was carefully planned to complement the existing layout of the playing fields, ensuring easy access for all age groups.
This project highlights our ability to deliver solutions for both rural and urban locations, reinforcing our reputation as trusted providers for councils and community organisations.
Funding and Grant Support for Community Fitness
The installation at Gilbert Avenue Playing Fields was supported by a £50,000 grant funding in Tuxford from the Rural England Prosperity Fund, making it possible for the local community to invest in long-term health infrastructure. Sunshine Gym worked closely with stakeholders to ensure the project aligned with funding requirements and delivered maximum benefit.
By combining practical equipment with expert gym supply, we created a facility that reflects the community’s vision for healthier lifestyles.
Serving Tuxford and the Wider Newark Area
The new outdoor gym is a valuable addition to Tuxford Newark, providing an alternative to traditional gyms and fitness centres. For residents exploring fitness options locally, the facility offers a free-to-use solution that encourages outdoor activity year-round.
As part of Sunshine Gym’s wider work, including Leigh gym installation projects, the Tuxford development adds to our growing portfolio of community-focused outdoor gyms across the UK.
Long-Term Benefits of Outdoor Gyms for Communities
By delivering both gym supply and installation, Sunshine Gym has provided Tuxford with a lasting resource that supports public health goals, encourages community engagement, and enhances the appeal of Gilbert Avenue Playing Fields.
This project reinforces the importance of outdoor gym installation in strengthening local infrastructure and demonstrates how well-designed facilities can bring people together through accessible, enjoyable activity.
The Integr8 multi-gym includes a double health walker, double slalom skier, sky stepper, horse rider, Tai Chi Discs, and an Arm Bike that allows up to 8 people to exercise together, maximising our concept of ‘fitness for everybody’, no matter ability or body size.
The Sthenos Rig features ten components, balancing traditional gym equipment exercises, callisthenics, and bodyweight resistance exercises.
One of our Inclusive Multi Gyms was also included in the project. It is accessible from all four sides and is great for wheelchair users who experience lower body mobility.
The new equipment set was installed on grass, with added matting to prevent erosion and protect from foot traffic.
Cllr Julie Leigh, Cabinet Member for Identity and Place said: "Rural England Prosperity Fund grants are great news for our communities and businesses in rural areas of Bassetlaw. It provides welcome funding to support them in their efforts to improve facilities for our residents and to help businesses with their growth ambitions."
