So sorry to be the bearer of bad news but Georgie and I have decided that we can no longer keep the gym up and running. The gym will close for good at the end of this month.
There are numerous reasons why we can't continue. There has been a sudden and significant change in circumstances around how the gym is run making it more difficult to continue. We are finding it more difficult to meet our commitment to the gym and, just as importantly, we have far too few members and very little income. It is very time consuming for us and, with the price of petrol and the general increase in the cost of living we can't continue to run it on a voluntary, unpaid basis with any expenses we incur coming out of our own pockets.
So, after a great deal of consideration and with much regret, we feel we have no choice but to close. We thank all of our current members for sticking with us for so long and being so loyal. All successive attempts to attract new members have been unsuccessful.
Please cancel any standing order arrangements you may have once August payments have been made. If we are in receipt of any in September I will make sure that they are refunded to you.
Finally, if anyone is interested in running the gym or if you know anyone who might be, then let me know. Ideally, it would be best to have a minimum of six people to share the load as it can be considerably time consuming. Of course, any requests to continue running the gym would have to get the OK from school.
Thanks again for all of your past support. We hope you all continue to stay fit and healthy during these difficult times.
Kind regards
Georgie and Mick
