We would like to purchase and install 16 items of outdoor gym equipment which will permanently set into the ground in an area adjacent to the hospital. The equipment will be available to the local community, hospital visitors, patients on a rehabilitation programme and members of staff.

At a time when costs are rising with a huge amount of day to day expenses, it is usually leisure items, such as health club membership, which get put on hold. By offering free use of this equipment we are not only offering the local community to utilise an activity for free they are also improving their level of fitness at the same time.
The Dudley Group NHS Foundation Trust treat over 700,000 patients a year (this can be verified and broken down if required). We have hundreds of patients and visitors coming through our main reception on a daily basis. Our patients and their families will all be encouraged to maintain a good level through a healthy diet and active lifestyle. By providing such a high profile activity such as the outdoor gym we would be sending out a very positive image.
