Service summary

Youth Service Better Gym supports young people who have experienced adverse childhood experiences, those using substances or those with other specific needs. The service aims to be accessible and inclusive, working with children and young people with Tier 2 support needs. The young people also have access to other facilities such as swimming.

The programme gives children and young people access to any Better Gym in Swindon with a Youth Service Gym Membership. The service works with children and young people aged between 14 to 17 due to health and safety regulations linked to using gym equipment. The children are supported by gym staff during their induction, however, it is independent from there on in.

Children and Young People who are working with professionals at a Tier 2 level of need can be referred in for a Youth Service Gym Membership and will need the following details in order to process the referral:

  • Young Person’s Full Name
  • Contact e mail address (Young Person or parent/carer) - Email address is vital as that is how the children book the online sessions and how the gym send confirmation of their membership through
  • Young Person’s Address
  • Young Person’s Date of Birth
  • Telephone number (Young Person or parent/carer)

Once the membership number has been sent through email, the young people will have 6 months until expiry, however, if they are over 17 years and 6 months, the membership will expire once they turn 18.
